TO RECODIFY TITLE 19 OF THE ARKANSAS CODE CONCERNING PUBLIC FINANCE; AND TO AMEND LAWS RESULTING FROM INITIATED ACTS 2000, NO. 1; AND TO MAKE CONFORMING CHANGES TO THE ARKANSAS CODE.
HB 1508 is a technical recodification bill that makes minor corrections to Arkansas' public finance code (Title 19). It corrects typographical errors in the code, such as changing "aw" to "law" on page 40, "mayo" to "may" on page 139, and updating a section reference from "19-11-1301" to "19-69-101." The bill does not create new policies or affect any specific groups; it solely organizes and clarifies existing finance-related statutes. It was enacted as Act 419 on March 25, 2025, after passing with minor amendments.
