APPROPRIATION - AMERICAN RESCUE PLAN ACT OF 2021. There is hereby appropriated, to the Department of Finance and Administration - Disbursing Officer, to be payable from various funds, for providing various state agencies, constitutional offices, and institutions with appropriation for any expenses associated with the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026, the following:* > > *ITEM FISCAL YEAR / NO. 2025-2026* > *(01) FEDERAL FUNDS AWARDED DIRECTLY TO AGENCIES, DEPARTMENTS, INSTITUTIONS, CITIES AND COUNTIES $2,000,000,000* > *(02) FEDERAL FUNDS AWARDED TO AGENCIES, DEPARTMENTS, INSTITUTIONS, CITIES, AND COUNTIES 1,000,000,000* > *TOTAL AMOUNT APPROPRIATED $3,000,000,000"* The final-enrolled § 35 text is **identical** to the engrossed text included as page 31 of `1513_001.pdf` (the ASP Tier-1 corpus excerpt). The "As Engrossed: H3/12/25 H4/1/25 H4/10/25" header line at the top of each Act-1006 page (preserved in the enrolled-Act file format) shows the three engrossment dates the bill went through before final passage; no further amendments altered § 35 between the April 10, 2025 H3 engrossment and the enrolled Act published April 22, 2025. ## § 78 — Emergency clause (enrolled-Act text, partial) > *"SECTION 78. EMERGENCY CLAUSE. It is found and determined by the General Assembly, that the Constitution of the State of Arkansas prohibits the appropriation of funds for more than a one (1) year period; that the effectiveness of this Act, except for Section 73, on July 1, 2025 is essential to the operation of the agency for which the appropriations in this Act are provided […] Therefore, an emergency is hereby declared to exist and this Act, except for Section 73, being necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety shall be in full force and effect from and after July 1, 2025."* ## Notes - **Tier: 2** — official Arkansas-General-Assembly-published enrolled Act, served from the Arkansas legislature's own arkleg.state.ar.us domain. - **Resolves the HB-1202-enacted-Act-number question.** The 2026-06-05 ASP-batch-1 ingest's [[HB 1202 Section 35 ARPA Appropriation Excerpt]] source page carried this as an open Tier-2-research follow-up. The answer is **Act 1006 of 2025**. - **The ASP-Leonardo procurement's fund code A.0960.ARPERR is one of the ASP-specific sub-allocations** drawn from this Act-1006-§ 35 appropriation. The Act appropriates funds to the DFA Disbursing Officer at the aggregate program level ($3B total); the agency-and-purpose-specific sub-allocations are made by the DFA Disbursing Officer through administrative-allocation processes downstream of the appropriation Act itself. The ASP-specific allocation paperwork is not in the ASP batch-1 corpus. - **Vote-of-record context.** Act 1006 passed the House 96-0 (April 14, 2025) and the Senate 32-0 (April 15, 2025) — unanimous in both chambers with no recorded opposition. The bill is a routine appropriations measure for federal pass-through funds, not a substantively contested vote. - **The Act is a continuing-appropriations vehicle.** Section 78's emergency clause cites the Arkansas Constitution's one-year-appropriation prohibition as the legal anchor for the July 1, 2025 effective date. The Act covers FY2025-2026 (July 1, 2025 to June 30, 2026). Future ARPA pass-through expenditures (post-FY2025-2026) would require a successor appropriations Act in the 2026 Fiscal Session or subsequent sessions. - **Companion appropriations on the same pages.** Section 34 of the Act covers CARES Appropriation ($5,000,000 for FY2025-2026), and Section 36 covers Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act of 2021 ($3,500,000,000 for FY2025-2026). The three sections together appropriate $6.5B of federal pass-through funds to the DFA Disbursing Officer for FY2025-2026 — the largest single Arkansas budgetary mechanism for federal-fund administration.
