Bill Summary
AN ACT MAKING AN APPROPRIATION FOR THE REGIONAL FARM TO FOOD BANK PROGRAM; DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.
AI Summary
This bill appropriates two million dollars from the state's general fund to New Mexico State University's board of regents, specifically for the New Mexico department of agriculture, to fund the regional farm to food bank program. This funding is designated for fiscal year 2026 and beyond, and any money not spent in a given fiscal year will not be returned to the general fund, allowing it to be used in subsequent years. The bill also declares an emergency, stating that its immediate effect is necessary for the public peace, health, and safety, which is a common legislative declaration to allow a bill to become law quickly.
