Bill Summary
AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION TO THE WORKFORCE SOLUTIONS DEPARTMENT TO PROVIDE FOR INCREASED OPERATIONAL COSTS ATTRIBUTABLE TO INCREASING NUMBERS OF CLIENTS SERVED BY THE DEPARTMENT.
AI Summary
This bill provides a $100 million appropriation from the state's general fund to the Workforce Solutions Department to support its increased operational expenses resulting from a growing client base. The funding is specifically designated for fiscal year 2026 and subsequent fiscal years, and notably includes a provision that any unspent funds at the end of a fiscal year will not be returned to the general fund, allowing the department to retain and potentially carry over the unused appropriation. The bill aims to ensure the department has sufficient financial resources to continue serving an expanding number of clients, which could indicate rising workforce development needs or increased demand for employment services in the state.
