Bill > HB0157

This bill appropriates a minimal amount of $2 from the General Revenue Fund to the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) for its fiscal year 2026 ordinary and contingent expenses. JCAR is a legislative oversight committee responsible for reviewing administrative rules proposed by state agencies to ensure they are consistent with legislative intent. The bill specifies that the full $2 may not necessarily be spent, but is available for the committee's operational needs. The appropriation will become effective on July 1, 2025, which marks the start of the next fiscal year. While the dollar amount is extremely small, this type of bill is a standard procedural mechanism for providing legislative funding and maintaining the committee's ability to function during the upcoming fiscal period.
