This resolution authorizes the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources to spend money and hire staff for its operations from March 1, 2025, through February 28, 2027. The committee is allocated a total of approximately $15.1 million across three budget periods: $4.4 million through September 2025, $7.5 million for the 2026 fiscal year, and $3.1 million through February 2027. These funds come from the Senate's contingent fund and can be used for employee salaries, consultants (up to $60,000 total across the two-year period), and professional staff training (up to $37,500 total). The resolution allows the committee to conduct hearings, investigations, and other work related to energy and natural resources policy while maintaining standard Senate approval and accounting procedures.
