An act relating to making appropriations for the support of government

This bill, known as the BIG BILL for Fiscal Year 2025, provides state government funding for operations and capital projects not covered by bond proceeds. It directly affects all state agencies, departments, and boards by establishing the primary source of appropriations for the upcoming fiscal year. The legislation sets spending limits, defines key financial terms like operating expenses and grants, and restricts the creation of new state positions unless previously authorized. It also outlines how federal funds may be accepted and used, while maintaining existing laws unless specifically changed. The bill was signed into law by the Governor in May 2024.
