This bill proposes the appropriation of funds for community action grants aimed at combating poverty in Minnesota. Specifically, it allocates $2,700,000 from the general fund for each of the fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to the commissioner of children, youth, and families. These funds are designated for use under the existing Minnesota Statutes sections 142F.30 to 142F.302, which govern the community action grants.

The bill emphasizes ongoing funding for these grants, reflecting a commitment to support community initiatives that address poverty. By providing this financial support, the legislation aims to enhance the capacity of local organizations to implement programs that assist low-income individuals and families in the state.
