What’s in it

AI summary This bill sets aside money for several state offices and agencies to use during the 2026-2027 fiscal year. It changes how certain fees, like those from fireworks and amusement devices, are stored by moving them into a single licensing and regulation fund. Additionally, it directs all certain non-examination revenues from the insurance division and the department of revenue into the commerce revolving fund.¹

Why it matters. State departments and agencies, including the offices of the governor and lieutenant governor, the department of revenue, and the department of insurance and financial services, would receive funding for fiscal years 2026-2027. The bill changes how certain fees and revenues are handled by moving money from the consumer fireworks fee fund, the electrical or mechanical amusement devices special fund, and certain professional boxing event proceeds into the licensing and regulation fund. Additionally, all nonexamination revenues previously split between the commerce revolving fund and the state general fund would now be deposited entirely into the commerce revolving fund.²
