Explanation
(This amendment provides $1.4 million from the general fund the first year and $1.9 million from the general fund the second year to mitigate funding reductions to 11 of 25 Area Agencies on Aging due to the reallocation of federal funding required by the Older Americans Act. Every ten years federal funding is reallocated based on changes in the census of low-income older Americans in each state.)
