The bill passed on March 13, 2026, amends the appropriations for the Department of Homeland Security, specifically the Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. It supplements the existing budget by adding a new item of appropriation for inmate medical expenses, which is funded from the unappropriated surplus balance in the State Fund, General Revenue. The new appropriation is designated as Fund 0450, Fiscal Year 2026, Organization 0608, with a total allocation of $2,754,676.

This legislative action is based on the Governor's Executive Budget Document submitted on January 14, 2026, which indicated a remaining unappropriated surplus balance in the Treasury available for appropriation. The bill reflects the state's commitment to addressing the medical needs of inmates within the correctional system by ensuring adequate funding for their healthcare expenses.
