522521 SECTION 14. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the 25
523522 General Assembly, that the Constitution of the State of Arkansas prohibits 26
524523 the appropriation of funds for more than a one (1) year period; that the 27
525524 effectiveness of this Act on July 1, 2025 is essential to the operation of 28
526525 the agency for which the appropriations in this Act are provided, and that in 29
527526 the event of an extension of the legislative session, the delay in the 30
528527 effective date of this Act beyond July 1, 2025 could work irreparable harm 31
529528 upon the proper administration and provision of essential governmental 32
530529 programs. Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Act 33
531530 being necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health 34
532531 and safety shall be in full force and effect from and after July 1, 2025. 35
