Supplementing and amending appropriations to Department of Economic Development, Office of the Secretary

This bill directs the West Virginia Legislature to allocate an additional $5 million from the state's unspent general revenue surplus to the Department of Economic Development for fiscal year 2025. The funds are specifically designated for the Childcare Expansion Pilot Program, which aims to support the growth of childcare services within the state. By adding this new line item to the existing budget, the legislation provides the necessary financial resources to launch or expand this pilot initiative without requiring new tax revenue.
