Summary

The bill establishes the California Public Safety Services Support Fund, moves $400 million from the General Fund for FY 2026‑27, and directs the Board of State and Community Corrections to distribute the money to counties, district attorneys and police for treatment, probation and theft‑reduction services required by Proposition 36. It also obligates future governors to propose annual transfers to keep the program fully funded, and it takes effect immediately as an urgency measure.
