Plain-language change summary

The recent amendments to SB 2084 adjust the reimbursement rates for travel expenses for state employees and officials in North Dakota. Specifically, the first three quarters of travel time have set rates of $9, $14, and $22, while the fourth quarter now allows for reimbursement of actual lodging expenses, capped based on a policy established by the Office of Management and Budget. This change is important because it modernizes the reimbursement structure, ensuring that travel expenses remain reasonable and in line with current standards, which can help attract and retain qualified personnel in state roles.
