House Bill 6005 proposes appropriations for the state government for the fiscal years beginning July 1, 2024, and July 1, 2025. The bill outlines funding for various state functions, including the legislative, executive, and judicial branches, as well as state aid, capital outlay, and public debt service. Notably, it includes a recurring appropriation of $225,800,000 and a nonrecurring appropriation of $198,400,000 specifically for the implementation of Education Freedom Scholarships, contingent upon the passage of a related bill. Additionally, it allocates $210,000,000 nonrecurring for the Hurricane Helene Interest Payment Fund and the Governor's Response and Recovery Fund, along with other appropriations for disaster relief and educational incentives.

The bill also includes provisions for the transfer of interest revenue from the Governor's Response and Recovery Fund to the Hurricane Helene Interest Payment Fund, and it designates $240,000,000 for disaster recovery costs through the Department of Military. Furthermore, it allocates $20,000,000 for the reconstruction of Hampton High School in Carter County and $6,200,000 for local education agencies related to tourism development. The bill ensures that unexpended funds do not revert to the general fund and are reappropriated in the following fiscal year. The act's provisions are severable, and while Section 1 takes effect on July 1, 2025, all other sections become effective upon passage.
