Official summary

Read the official summary (openstates)

During the 2023-24 and 2024-25 state fiscal years, the general assembly appropriated money from the state education fund for expenditures related to the healthy school meals for all program. The act directs the state treasurer to transfer $31,066,831 from the healthy school meals for all program cash fund (program fund) to the state education fund on July 1, 2026. Under current law, beginning on July 1, 2026, and on each July 1 thereafter, the state treasurer is required to transfer money from the state education fund to the program fund and to the healthy school meals for all program fund account (account) within the program fund. The act delays that requirement so that the treasurer is required to transfer money from the state education fund to the program fund and to the account beginning on July 1, 2028. In addition, the act repeals reporting requirements related to money in the program fund.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
