Bill > HB0162

This bill appropriates a minimal sum of $2 from the General Revenue Fund to the Legislative Ethics Commission for its fiscal year 2026 operational expenses. The bill is a standard appropriations measure that provides funding for the Legislative Ethics Commission, which is a governmental body responsible for overseeing and ensuring ethical conduct among legislators. The appropriation is effective from July 1, 2025, and allows the commission to cover its ordinary and contingent (miscellaneous) expenses. While the amount of $2 is unusually low and may suggest this is a placeholder or symbolic appropriation, the bill formally establishes the financial allocation for the commission's activities in the upcoming fiscal year.
