AI Summary
This bill appropriates $500,000 from the state general fund in fiscal year 2025-2026 to the Arizona Department of Veterans' Services to award grants to nonprofit veterans organizations. Specifically, the bill targets nonprofit veterans organizations that are physically located in counties with a population of less than 500,000 people and that help veterans secure housing or employment benefits. The bill also includes a provision that exempts this appropriation from the standard rule that unused appropriations lapse or expire, extending the availability of these funds through June 30, 2027. By focusing on smaller counties and providing targeted financial support, the bill aims to assist veterans in Pinal County and similar rural areas in accessing critical housing and employment resources through local nonprofit organizations.
