Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to human services; limiting increases to Department of Human Services central office appropriations; proposing coding for new law in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 256.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to limit how much the central office of the Department of Human Services (DHS) can increase its funding each year, capping any increase at four percent from one fiscal year to the next. This limitation will only be in effect during fiscal years when specific inflation and percentage increase limits related to other human services programs, such as those governed by sections 256B.4914, 256R.23, and 256R.24, are also active. The CPI-U, or Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, is a common measure of inflation, and its inclusion suggests the bill is tying the DHS central office appropriation limit to broader economic conditions. This measure is set to take effect on July 1, 2026.
