This bill proposes to update current statutes by appropriating $8,200,000 from the state general fund for the fiscal year 2026-2027 to the law enforcement crime victim notification fund, as established by section 41-2414 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This new funding aims to enhance the resources available for notifying crime victims about relevant developments in their cases.
Additionally, the bill includes a provision that exempts this appropriation from the lapsing of appropriations as outlined in section 35-190 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This means that the allocated funds will not expire at the end of the fiscal year, ensuring that they remain available for use in supporting the crime victim notification efforts.
