The bill amends the budget for the fiscal year 2025 by supplementing appropriations for the Department of Arts, Culture, and History, specifically within the Division of Culture and History. It introduces a new item of appropriation under Title II, Section 1, which allocates $2,000,000 from the General Revenue Fund to the Directed Transfer (fund 0293, appropriation 70000). This amount is designated to be transferred to the Cultural Facilities and Capital Resources Matching Grant Program Fund (fund 3537).

The bill is a response to the Governor's Executive Budget Document submitted on February 12, 2025, which indicated an unappropriated balance in the State Fund, General Revenue, available for appropriation during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The enactment of this bill allows for the allocation of these funds to support cultural initiatives within the state.
