Bill Summary · S 1132

Summary — S 1132

Note: The materials you provided include multiple, inconsistent documents under the same bill number (including an Idaho appropriation bill, a Massachusetts wrongful‑conviction draft, and an unrelated title “Bystander Protection Act”). The authoritative bill text included in the packet is an Idaho enactment that appropriates funds to the State Independent Living Council (SILC). This summary focuses on that enacted Idaho bill. Please verify if you intended a different S 1132.

Main purpose

To realign funding sources for personnel costs at the Idaho State Independent Living Council (SILC) for FY 2026 by shifting $11,600 from SILC’s dedicated fund to the State General Fund — an intra‑agency fund source adjustment made effective immediately by emergency clause.

Key provisions

  • Appropriates $11,600 from the General Fund to the State Independent Living Council for Personnel Costs for the period July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026 (Section 1).
  • Reduces the appropriation to the State Independent Living Council Fund by $11,600 for Personnel Costs for the same period (Section 2).
  • Declares an emergency and sets the act to be in full force and effect on and after July 1, 2025 (Section 3).

Fiscal impact (per the bill’s fiscal note)

  • The change is a fund‑shift only: General Fund +$11,600; SILC dedicated fund −$11,600. Net ongoing fiscal impact = $0.
  • FY 2026 total SILC budget reported as $696,500.
  • No change in full‑time positions (4.00 FTE reported).
  • The adjustment is identified as aligning the budget by fund source according to maintenance appropriations in related budget legislation (SB 1108).

Who is affected

  • Primary: State Independent Living Council (SILC) — the agency’s FY2026 personnel line will be funded $11,600 from General Fund instead of its dedicated fund.
  • Secondary: State budget/fund accounting — a reallocation between fund sources that does not change overall spending for SILC.

Procedural / timeline highlights

  • Bill text indicates introduction in the 2025 session (Finance Committee sponsorship).
  • Legislative actions in the record show passage and enrolled status, delivered to and signed by the Governor (signed 03/31/2025) and effective date July 1, 2025 (Session Law Chapter 225).
  • The fiscal note and statement of purpose are included as attachments and note that the document was prepared by a proponent (per Joint Rule 18).

Observations / recommended next steps

  • The packet includes unrelated texts and titles (e.g., “Bystander Protection Act,” and a Massachusetts bill on wrongful conviction). Confirm which S 1132 (jurisdiction and subject) you want summarized if this is not the Idaho SILC appropriation bill.
