The bill appropriates funds to various state agencies for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, and includes provisions for the reversion of unspent balances to the appropriate funds. Notably, it removes the previous language that continued appropriations into the biennium beginning July 1, 2025, and clarifies that the appropriations are intended for necessary and ordinary expenditures for the specified fiscal year.

In terms of specific allocations, the bill designates funds to several departments, including $1.7 million to the Department of Revenue, $22.2 million to the Department of Public Health and Human Services, and $4.067 million to the Montana Highway Patrol, among others. Additionally, new insertions include funding for the Legal Services Division of the Department of Justice and State Level Activities within the Office of Public Instruction, while the previous designation for State Level Activities has been replaced with a distribution to public schools. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
