Appropriation Bill
This bill allocates $3,157,170 from the General Fund to the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services for fiscal year 2026-27 to support programs established under Legislative Bill 304. The funding is designated specifically for Program 347 and cannot be used for employee salaries or travel expenses. No money is appropriated for fiscal year 2025-26, meaning the program will only receive state funding starting in the next fiscal year. The bill enables the department to implement services or initiatives outlined in the original 2026 legislation.
