This bill proposes to update current statutes by appropriating an additional $400,000 from the state general fund to the state department of corrections specifically for the braille transcription program for the fiscal year 2025-2026. This new funding is intended to supplement the existing allocation of $200,000 that the department currently provides each fiscal year for the same program.

Furthermore, the bill establishes the intent of the legislature that the newly appropriated $400,000 should be regarded as ongoing funding for the braille transcription program in future years. This change aims to enhance the financial support for the program, ensuring its sustainability and potentially expanding its impact within the department of corrections.
