This bill proposes to update current statutes by appropriating $10,000,000 from the state general fund to the Department of Health Services specifically for the issuance and renewal of registry identification cards for veterans of the United States armed forces, as outlined in section 36-2804.02 of the Arizona Revised Statutes. This funding is intended for the fiscal year 2026-2027.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision that exempts this appropriation from the lapsing of appropriations as specified 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 their intended purpose.
