TO MAKE TECHNICAL CORRECTIONS TO TITLE 11 OF THE ARKANSAS CODE CONCERNING LABOR AND INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS.
SB 175 makes minor technical corrections to Arkansas Code § 11-10-310(f), which governs budget processes for the Division of Workforce Services. It updates outdated reference language (changing "this section" to "this subsection and subsection (e)") to fix errors in the existing code. This is a purely procedural adjustment with no new policy changes, affecting how the Division references budget procedures but not workers or employers. The bill was enacted as Act 168 on February 25, 2025.
