AI Summary
This bill amends the beef checkoff program by establishing a cap on the total costs that state entities, such as the department of administration and information, can assess against the beef council annually. Specifically, these costs, excluding those already addressed in another part of the law, will be limited to a maximum of three percent (3%) of the annual portion of fees collected by the beef council that are not already committed under state or federal regulations. The beef checkoff program is a system where producers of beef contribute funds to promote beef consumption and research. This legislation aims to limit the administrative costs that can be deducted from these collected fees.
