The bill proposes supplemental appropriations totaling $43,138,650 from the Opioid Treatment and Abatement Fund for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. The appropriations are designated for various entities and purposes, including $1,500,000 for the Board of Pardons and Paroles, $26,360,000 for the Department of Mental Health (with specific allocations for Medicaid, detox, Naloxone, crisis line support, and more), and funding for programs at Auburn University, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, and the University of South Alabama, among others. Additionally, $5,000,000 previously allocated to the Department of Mental Health for a dedicated opioid treatment center will be transferred to the Department of Public Health for the same purpose.

The bill also includes provisions that ensure any unspent funds appropriated in this act will not revert at the end of the fiscal year but will be carried forward for their intended purposes. The act is set to become effective on June 1, 2026. Notably, the bill includes the insertion of new legal language regarding the appropriations and transfers, while no deletions from current law are specified.
