Bill > HB5682

This bill directs that funds from the General Revenue, which is the state's main operating fund, be moved to its surplus balance, meaning any money not already designated for specific spending. Specifically, it appropriates $72,000,000 from the General Revenue fund for the fiscal year 2026 to the Higher Education Policy Commission's Administration Control Account. This appropriated amount is designated as "Current Expenses – Surplus" and is further broken down to allocate $30,000,000 for Marshall University School of Medicine, $5,000,000 for West Virginia University Dental School, $32,000,000 for West Virginia University School of Medicine, and $5,000,000 for the West Virginia School of Osteopathic Medicine, all for the purpose of expanding biomedical sciences research.
