Expiring funds from Treasurer’s Office, Unclaimed Property Fund
This bill directs the state Treasurer's Office to remove $15 million from the Unclaimed Property Fund for the 2025 fiscal year. The money will be moved to the state's general revenue surplus account instead of being spent on specific programs. This action reduces the available budget for the Unclaimed Property Fund while increasing the unspent balance in the general state fund. The legislation was approved by the governor and enacted as part of the state's budget adjustments for that year.
