AI Summary
This bill supplements and amends existing appropriations of public money from the State Fund, which is the state's general revenue account, by allocating an unappropriated surplus balance to specific spending needs for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. Specifically, it directs $84,600 from this surplus to cover inmate medical expenses within the Division of Corrections and Rehabilitation, a part of the Department of Homeland Security, with an additional $2,754,676 designated from the general revenue fund for the same purpose. This action is taken because the Governor's budget submission indicated a surplus in the State Fund that is available for appropriation.
