AN ACT CONCERNING FUNDING FOR THE EASY BREATHING ASTHMA PROGRAM.

SB 33 appropriates $500,000 from the General Fund to the Department of Public Health for the Easy Breathing asthma program during the 2025-2026 fiscal year. This bill directly affects the program's ability to operate by restoring funding that was previously eliminated. The key provision is the specific allocation of $500,000 to support asthma management services under the program, as stated in the bill's purpose to "reinstate funding." The funding will cover program operations through June 30, 2026.
