The proposed bill, if enacted, would update current statutes by appropriating $250,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 to the Livestock Compensation Fund, as established by section 17-493 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This appropriation aims to support the compensation of landowners, lessees, and livestock operators for losses incurred due to wolf depredation and related programs.

The bill introduces new language that specifies the amount of the appropriation and the fiscal year in which it will take effect, while the existing provisions regarding the administration and purpose of the Livestock Compensation Fund remain unchanged. The bill's effective date aligns with the general effective date of legislation in Arizona.
