The bill, passed on April 12, 2025, amends the appropriations of public funds from the State Fund, General Revenue, specifically for the State Board of Education and the State Department of Education for the fiscal year 2025. It increases the existing appropriation for the Hope Scholarship Program, which is now set at $28,400,666. This adjustment is made possible due to an unappropriated balance in the Treasury that is available for appropriation during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025.

The bill reflects the Governor's Executive Budget Document submitted to the Legislature, which outlined the cash balance and revenue estimates for the fiscal year. The increase in funding aims to support educational initiatives under the State Board of Education, ensuring that the necessary resources are allocated to the Hope Scholarship Program. The bill is effective immediately upon passage.
