What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill prohibits political subdivisions from expending moneys of the political

subdivision for the purpose of making payments to individuals under a guaranteed

income program. “Guaranteed income program” is defined under the bill to mean a

program under which individuals are provided with regular periodic cash payments

that are unearned and that may be used for any purpose. Programs under which an

individual is required to perform work or attend training are not “guaranteed income

programs” under the bill.
