HB 26-1394

signed

Change Motorcycle Operator Fund to Annual Appropriation

Plain-English Summary

AI-generated

House Bill 26-1394 changes how money from the Motorcycle Operator Safety Training Fund is used. Instead of being available all year for the state patrol office, this fund will now need yearly approval by lawmakers before it can be spent each fiscal year. This affects motorcycle safety training programs and their funding in Colorado. Since the bill has been signed, it means that the new rules are now law and will apply to future budgets.

Official Summary

Joint Budget Committee. The bill provides that the motorcycle operator safety training fund is no longer immediately and continuously available for use by the office of the chief of the state patrol in the department of public safety (office), and instead is available to be expended by the office subject to annual appropriation by the general assembly.(Note: This summary applies to the reengrossed version of this bill as introduced in the second house.)
