The bill proposes an appropriation of $1,500,000 from the general fund to the Higher Education Department for a program at the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe. This program aims to conduct research and provide education and outreach regarding pollinators, with the goal of supporting a healthy habitat and conservation efforts. The funding is designated for expenditure during fiscal years 2026 through 2028, and it is stipulated that no more than $150,000 of the total amount can be allocated for indirect costs associated with administering the program.

Additionally, the bill specifies that any unexpended or unencumbered funds remaining at the end of fiscal year 2028 will revert back to the general fund. The program is intended to align with the recommendations outlined in a report prepared in response to House Memorial 33 from the second session of the fifty-sixth legislature, ensuring that the initiative is consistent with established guidelines for pollinator conservation.
