Plain-language change summary

The updated version of House Bill 2895 includes an appropriation of $50 million from the state general fund to the crisis contingency and safety net fund for the fiscal year 2019-2020, which was not explicitly stated in the earlier version. Additionally, the reversion date for unspent funds has been extended from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2022. This change is important because it provides more financial support to help address crises while allowing additional time for these funds to be utilized effectively.
