Analysis
House Bill 1299 makes an innocuous name change to a fund used by the Attorney General to administer the Notary Public program as part of a broader bill that repealed certain special funds and transferred the remaining balances to the state's general fund. Depletion of revenue during the COVID-19 pandemic required the Legislature to determine if special funds were serving their purpose.
