The resolution HCR2015 proposes to authorize the Arizona Legislature to appropriate noncustodial federal funds, subject to voter approval. Currently, the Legislature only appropriates a limited number of federal funds, primarily block grants and those from the Department of Economic Security. The resolution defines noncustodial federal monies as funds that allow the state discretion in their use, such as block grants and general revenue sharing, while excluding certain federal funds designated for universities and specific state departments.

If approved, the resolution would require budget units receiving these funds to maintain separate accounts for proper accounting and auditing. It also stipulates that the Legislature must specify the intended use of these appropriations and allows for lump-sum appropriations for unanticipated funds when the Legislature is not in session. The resolution aims to ensure that the state can effectively manage and utilize federal funds while maintaining compliance with both state and federal laws. The measure will be submitted to voters at the next general election and will take effect upon their approval and the Governor's proclamation.
