Supplemental Appropriation Expiring Funds from Governor’s Office - Civil Contingent Fund and Appropriating to Governor’s Office - Civil Contingent Fund.
HB 5309 moves $15 million in unused funds from the Governor’s Office Civil Contingent Fund (FY2023) to the state’s General Revenue surplus for the 2026 fiscal year. It expires the remaining balance from the 2023 fund and creates a new appropriation line for the same fund in FY2026 to reflect this transfer. This is an administrative accounting adjustment - no new spending or policy changes are created, and it directly affects only state budget accounting systems, not citizens or programs.
