Bill > HB3970

This bill appropriates a minimal amount of $2 from the General Revenue Fund (GRF) to the State Board of Education to cover its ordinary and contingent expenses for fiscal year 2026. The bill is specifically designed to provide funding for the board's operational costs and will take effect on July 1, 2025. While the appropriation amount is extremely small, which is unusual for a typical state budget bill, it legally enables the State Board of Education to access funds for its administrative needs during the specified fiscal year. The bill follows standard legislative formatting, including an enacting clause that represents the will of the Illinois General Assembly and specifies the precise effective date of the legislation.
