HB 1077 Arkansas House · 2026 Fiscal Session

AN ACT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES - DIVISION OF COUNTY OPERATIONS APPROPRIATION FOR THE 2026-2027 FISCAL YEAR.

This bill appropriates funding for the Division of County Operations within the Department of Human Services for the 2026-2027 fiscal year. It directly affects county-level social service agencies by establishing their budget and staffing levels. The legislation authorizes specific salaries for two new positions - a Social Services Supervisor/Expert and a Procurement Coordinator - and adjusts the total budget amount from the previous draft. Additionally, the bill removes a specific section regarding the creation of a new job classification that was included in an earlier version. Once enacted as Act 127, these changes provide the financial framework for the department to operate during the upcoming fiscal year.
