The bill outlines a Fiscal Year transfer schedule for the Civics Project Trust Fund, as mandated by Section 2E of Chapter 9 of the Acts of 2025. It specifies a total allocation of $2,500,000 for the Civics Project Trust Fund, which is intended to provide an operating subsidy from the General Fund to enhance civics education within the Commonwealth. The transfer schedule includes monthly amounts, with $1,250,000 allocated for both August and December of 2025, and an additional $2,500,000 noted for June 2026.
New legal language has been inserted to include an "OT Schedule Summary" and to specify the month of June 2026 as part of the transfer schedule. This addition aims to clarify the financial planning and ensure that the Civics Project Trust Fund receives the necessary support for its educational initiatives. The bill emphasizes the importance of civics education and the state's commitment to funding it through this structured financial plan.
