appropriation; Navajo Nation; transportation projects

HB 2893 appropriates over $36 million from Arizona's state general fund for fiscal year 2026-2027 to fund road improvements on Navajo Nation land. The bill directs the Arizona Department of Transportation to distribute funds specifically to the Navajo Nation Division of Transportation for graveling, sealing, and drainage work on three designated routes: Navajo Route 8090, 8070, and 8009. These projects directly affect Navajo Nation communities by upgrading rural transportation infrastructure. The funding is a direct allocation from the state budget, with no new policy requirements or eligibility changes for the recipient.
