This bill proposes an appropriation of one million dollars ($1,000,000) from the general fund to the legislative council service. The funds are designated for expenditure in fiscal years 2026 through 2028 and are intended to support the legislative health and human services committee in its ongoing efforts to analyze and develop solutions for key health care cost drivers.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2028 will revert back to the general fund, ensuring that unused funds are returned to the state’s budget. This appropriation aims to enhance the committee's capacity to address pressing health care issues effectively.
