HB 5108 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

To fund the Tobacco Use Cessation Initiative

HB 5108 creates a dedicated "Tobacco Cessation Initiative Program Special Revenue Account" managed by the Bureau for Public Health to fund tobacco use cessation programs. It mandates an annual transfer of $5 million from interest earned on the Revenue Shortfall Reserve Fund - Part B to this account, starting July 30, 2026. The funds are specifically designated for tobacco cessation initiatives and must be used as outlined in the bill, with balances carrying over annually. This directly affects the Bureau for Public Health, which administers the programs funded by these dedicated resources.
