It allocates a total of $675,000 for mileage allowances, per diem, maintenance, and general operations, $650,000 for employee salaries, and $75,000 for employer matching funds, all payable from the Constitutional Officers Fund. Additionally, the bill includes provisions for the transfer of funds between items if deemed unnecessary for their specific purposes by the Senate Efficiency Committee and the Secretary of the Senate, with the approval of the Arkansas Senate.

An emergency clause is included in the bill, stating that the Arkansas Senate of the 94th General Assembly will convene on January 9, 2023, and that expenses will begin immediately. This clause emphasizes the necessity for the bill to take effect promptly to ensure the timely payment of state expenses related to the Senate's operations. The bill will be in full force and effect upon passage and approval, or if not acted upon by the Governor, it will become effective after the veto period.
