AI Summary

This bill provides a comprehensive budget for the state of West Virginia for fiscal year 2026, detailing appropriations and expenditures across various state agencies and departments. The bill is structured into several key sections, each addressing different funding sources and allocations. The total appropriations span multiple categories, including general revenue ($5.32 billion), state road funds ($2.13 billion), other funds ($2.32 billion), lottery net profits ($157.4 million), state excess lottery revenue ($335 million), federal funds ($8.22 billion), and federal block grants ($730.4 million). The budget covers a wide range of state functions, from legislative and judicial branches to executive agencies, departments of commerce, education, health, human services, and more. It provides detailed funding for specific programs, such as education initiatives, healthcare services, infrastructure projects, veteran support, economic development, and social services. The bill includes provisions for reappropriating unexpended balances from the previous fiscal year, allows for fund transfers between certain accounts, and sets conditions for expenditure of appropriated funds. Key highlights include significant investments in education (including the PROMISE Scholarship), healthcare (including Medicaid services), infrastructure improvements, economic development, and support for various state agencies and their operational needs. The bill also includes specific allocations for local government support, claims against the state, and provisions for handling surplus funds from the previous fiscal year. The budget is conditional on spending units complying with state financial regulations and includes a severability clause to ensure that if any part of the act is found unconstitutional, the remainder of the act remains in effect. The fiscal year runs from July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026.
