HJR 14 Utah House · 2026 General Session

Joint Rules Resolution - Requests for Appropriation

HJR 14 is a procedural rules resolution that modifies how Utah legislators request funding for district projects. It directs the Executive Appropriations Committee to set aside 1% of certain revenue for "district requests for appropriation," allowing each legislator to allocate a fixed share (50% of district funds divided by 29 for senators or 75 for representatives) toward projects within their district that serve a statewide public purpose. Approved requests must be included in the final appropriations bill after review by joint subcommittees. This resolution does not appropriate new funds but changes committee procedures for handling existing district funding requests.
