Bill > HB1800

This bill, known as the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2026, amends existing state budget laws for the fiscal biennium of 2025-2027, adjusting and requesting appropriations for executive branch agencies and programs, including capital improvement projects. It clarifies definitions for terms like "expending agency" (state entities authorized to spend funds), "means of financing" (MOF, indicating the source of funds like general funds 'A' or bond funds 'C'), and "position ceiling" (limits on employee positions). The bill also outlines specific provisions for disbursing funds to entities like Maui Health System and charter schools, allocating funds for disaster relief and community outreach courts, and allowing for salary adjustments based on commission recommendations. Furthermore, it grants the governor authority to adjust capital improvement project scopes, authorize emergency expenditures, transfer funds between programs, and manage federal funds, while also detailing procedures for lapsing unexpended appropriations and managing retirement and health premium payments.
