Supplemental Appropriation to Department of Agriculture, fund 1481
SB 842 is a supplemental funding bill that increases the 2026 budget allocation for the West Virginia Spay Neuter Assistance Fund (Fund 1481) by $200,000. This additional funding directly supports the state's existing spay/neuter program for companion animals, managed under the Department of Agriculture. The bill amends the current budget line for "Current Expenses" to raise the total appropriation to $330,000 for fiscal year 2026, using unappropriated funds already designated for this program. It does not create new services or change eligibility - it simply provides extra resources for the established program.
