Bill Summary

AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO THE CRIME VICTIMS REPARATION COMMISSION FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT SERVICES PROGRAMS.

AI Summary

This bill appropriates $2 million from New Mexico's general fund to the Crime Victims Reparation Commission specifically for sexual assault services programs during fiscal year 2026. The funds are designated to support programs that assist victims of sexual assault, which may include counseling, legal support, medical advocacy, and other critical services. Any money from this appropriation that remains unspent or uncommitted by the end of fiscal year 2026 will be returned to the general fund, ensuring fiscal accountability and preventing unused funds from being carried over indefinitely. This type of targeted funding helps provide critical support to survivors of sexual assault by ensuring dedicated resources are available for specialized services and assistance.
