Oromo youth programs funding provided, and money appropriated.
This bill appropriates $200,000 for fiscal year 2026 and $200,000 for fiscal year 2027 from the arts and cultural heritage fund to support Oromo youth programs.

It does not change existing laws but allocates existing state funds to support this targeted initiative.
