The General Appropriation Act of 2025 provides funding from the General Fund for various agencies within the Executive Department of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the fiscal year spanning from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The act outlines specific appropriations for salaries, wages, travel expenses, contractual services, and other operational costs necessary for the agencies to fulfill their duties. Notably, it includes provisions for the payment of bills that remain unpaid at the end of the previous fiscal year, which concluded on June 30, 2025.
Additionally, the act stipulates that any unspent, uncommitted, or unencumbered funds from the appropriations in Part II will automatically lapse as of June 30, 2026, unless otherwise specified by law. The act is designed to be retroactively applicable from July 1, 2025, and will take effect immediately upon enactment.
