An original resolution authorizing expenditures by the Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions.

SRES 42 is a procedural resolution authorizing the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions to spend funds for its operations from March 2023 through February 2025. It sets specific spending limits: $7.3 million for March-September 2023, $12.6 million for fiscal year 2024, and $5.2 million for October 2024-February 2025, with up to $75,000 per period for consultant services and $25,000 per period for staff training. The resolution allows the committee to use the Senate’s contingent fund for personnel, travel, and other operational costs without additional legislative approval. This routine funding measure directly affects only the committee’s internal budgeting and does not create new policies or impact external stakeholders.
