Making 2023-2025 fiscal biennium second supplemental operating appropriations.

HB 1197 is a supplemental appropriations bill funding state court operations and specific programs for the 2023-2025 fiscal biennium. It allocates funds primarily to state courts (e.g., $28.6 million for the Court of Appeals in FY 2025) and counties for juvenile justice services ($7 million annually for truancy and youth case management), court security in rural areas ($1 million), and an equity dashboard program ($1.35 million for data collection on justice disparities). The bill directs specific funding streams for court-appointed attorneys, lactation spaces in courthouses, and opioid settlement fund uses. These appropriations directly affect state courts, county juvenile programs, and local court facilities across Washington.
