Bill > HB1957

This bill appropriates a minimal sum of $2 from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO) for its fiscal year 2026 ordinary and contingent expenses. The bill is a standard appropriations measure that provides a nominal funding allocation to the department, with the appropriation becoming effective on July 1, 2025. While the amount is extremely small, which is unusual for a state department appropriation, the bill follows the standard legislative process of specifying funding for a government agency's operational costs. The brevity of the bill suggests it may be a placeholder, a technical amendment, or part of a larger budgeting process that will be more fully detailed in subsequent legislation.
