Bill Summary

STATE FISCAL RECOVERY FUND -- States findings of the House of Representatives and obligates funds from the State Fiscal Recovery Fund for a State Employee Health Insurance Fund offset.

AI Summary

This Resolution acknowledges that the State of Idaho received over $1 billion from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) for its State Fiscal Recovery Fund, with a deadline of December 31, 2024, to obligate these funds and December 31, 2026, to spend them. It notes that using these funds for COVID-19 mitigation and prevention is an allowable expense, and that Idaho's State Employee Health Insurance Fund has experienced unexpected costs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as for testing and treatment, which have negatively impacted its financial reserves. Therefore, the Resolution directs that $25 million from the State Fiscal Recovery Fund be allocated to replenish the reserves of the State Employee Health Insurance Fund.
