Summary

The bill lets Maryland’s governor transfer cash from the Revenue Stabilization Account into the State Disaster Recovery Fund, but only if the transfer does not reduce the account below 5% of the year’s estimated General Fund revenue. The transfer also requires approval from the Board of Public Works. This gives the state extra resources for disaster recovery while protecting its financial cushion.
