Bill > HB1973

This bill appropriates a modest sum of $2 from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of Human Services (DHS) to cover its ordinary and contingent expenses for fiscal year 2026, with the appropriation becoming effective on July 1, 2025. While the dollar amount is extremely small, which is unusual for a government appropriation bill, the legislation follows standard legislative formatting by including an enacting clause that establishes the authority of the Illinois General Assembly to pass the law and specifies the precise amount and purpose of the funding. The bill appears to be a technical measure that may be part of a larger budgeting process or potentially a placeholder for future funding adjustments.
