AN ACT FOR THE AUDITOR OF STATE - OPERATIONS AND UNCLAIMED PROPERTY PROGRAM APPROPRIATION FOR THE 2026-2027 FISCAL YEAR.

This bill amends the 2026-2027 state budget to adjust funding and staffing levels for the Arkansas Auditor of State's operations and Unclaimed Property Program. It establishes specific maximum numbers and salary rates for various permanent positions within both the general operations and the unclaimed property divisions, while also authorizing up to three temporary or part-time workers for the latter. The legislation increases the total appropriation for these programs and reallocates funds for unclaimed property claims and administrative expenses to reflect these staffing changes.
