If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $400,000 from the state General Fund for the fiscal year 2025-2026 specifically for the Braille Transcription Program within the Arizona Department of Corrections. This new funding is intended to supplement the existing allocation of $200,000 that the department currently provides annually for the program, effectively doubling the financial support.

Additionally, the bill includes a declaration of legislative intent, indicating that the newly appropriated funds should be considered ongoing funding in future years. This change aims to ensure sustained financial support for the Braille Transcription Program, which is crucial for providing educational resources to visually impaired individuals within the correctional system.
