The resolution specifies that the funds will be drawn from the state treasury for the fiscal year 2025-2026.

The resolution was introduced by Representatives Casimiro, Donovan, Morales, Stewart, Cruz, and Kazarian on January 15 and has been referred to the House Finance Committee for consideration.
