Procedures and Restrictions Act, the Higher Education Expenditure Restriction 1
Act, or their successors, and other fiscal control laws of this State, where 2

SECTION 6. LEGISLATIVE INTENT. It is the intent of the General 7
Assembly that any funds disbursed under the authority of the appropriations 8
contained in this act shall be in compliance with the stated reasons for 9
which this act was adopted, as evidenced by the Agency Requests, Executive 10
Recommendations and Legislative Recommendations contained in the budget 11

summarized oral testimony in the official minutes of the Arkansas Legislative 13

SECTION 7. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the General 16
Assembly, that the Constitution of the State of Arkansas prohibits the 17
appropriation of funds for more than a one (1) year period; that the 18
effectiveness of this Act on July 1, 2026 is essential to the operation of 19
the agency for which the appropriations in this Act are provided, and that in 20
the event of an extension of the legislative session, the delay in the 21
effective date of this Act beyond July 1, 2026 could work irreparable harm 22
upon the proper administration and provision of essential governmental 23
programs. Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Act 24
being necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health 25
and safety shall be in full force and effect from and after July 1, 2026. 26
