Bill > HB1335

This bill appropriates $2,243,000 from a restricted revenue account within the General Fund to the Office of Small Business Advocate (OSBA), which is part of the Department of Community and Economic Development, to support its operations for the fiscal year from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. The bill specifies that the appropriation will take effect either on July 1, 2025, or immediately after passage, whichever occurs later. The purpose of this funding is to ensure that the Office of Small Business Advocate, which helps support and represent the interests of small businesses in Pennsylvania, has the necessary resources to continue its work during the specified fiscal year. By allocating these funds from a restricted revenue account, the bill ensures that the money comes from a specific, designated source within the state's General Fund.
