This bill appropriates funds from the general fund of the state treasury to the Indian Affairs Commission for the biennium from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027. The total appropriation amounts to $1,288,351, which includes $997,943 for salaries and wages, $10,462 for a new and vacant full-time equivalent (FTE) pool, and $279,946 for operating expenses. Notably, the bill introduces a new line item for "Base Level Enhancements Appropriation" and specifies the operating expenses with an additional amount of $12,228.

Furthermore, the bill establishes a limitation on the spending of funds in the new and vacant FTE pool, stating that the Indian Affairs Commission cannot directly spend these funds but may request a transfer to the salaries and wages line item from the office of management and budget, contingent upon approval by the legislative assembly. This provision aims to ensure that the funds are utilized effectively while maintaining oversight on the commission's budgetary allocations.
