This bill provides an appropriation for the state treasurer's expenses for the biennium from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027. It includes a total funding amount of $3,510,939, which encompasses salaries and wages, operating expenses, coal severance payments, and new funding for carbon dioxide pipeline payments. Notably, the bill introduces a new line item for one-time funding of $295,000 for information technology projects, sourced from the strategic investment and improvements fund. Additionally, it establishes a new and vacant full-time equivalent (FTE) pool, with restrictions on spending from this pool unless funds are transferred to the salaries and wages line item.

The bill also amends the salary of the state treasurer, increasing it from $130,001 to $139,256 through June 30, 2026, and subsequently to $143,434 thereafter. This adjustment reflects a change in the compensation structure for the position. The bill is declared an emergency measure, particularly concerning the one-time funding for information technology projects, which necessitates immediate attention and allocation.
