Decreasing appropriation to Economic Development Authority and increasing appropriation to Department of Human Services
SB 781 reallocates $9,506,440 from the Economic Development Authority's Economic Development Project Fund (Fund 9065) to the Department of Human Services' Medical Services program (Fund 5365) for fiscal year 2025. This budget amendment uses unappropriated funds from the State Excess Lottery Revenue Fund to shift existing state funding without creating new programs or changing eligibility rules. The bill directly affects the Economic Development Authority, which will see reduced funding for economic development projects, and the Department of Human Services, which will receive increased funding for medical services. The reallocation is purely procedural and does not alter the total state budget for fiscal year 2025.
