Introduced

To appropriate $7.5 million in fire protection grants to local governments. This would restore funding removed from House Bill 5644 by a line item veto. Note: The governor vetoed this item to “send a message” that adoption by voters Proposals 3 and 4 in November would make it more difficult to balance future budgets, because they contain certain spending mandates that would remove budget discretion from the legislature. The funding was subsequently restored by way of House Bill 5651.
Referred to the Committee on Appropriations
