What it does
Money set aside for upgrading the state's management systems returns to the main state fund on June 30, 2029, unless legally spent or committed to payments.
Argument forA clear return deadline could help state officials plan system upgrades and track money they have not spent or committed.
Argument againstKeeping unused money available for system upgrades until June 2029 could delay its availability for other state needs.
