§ 12056 Vocational Education Fund Custody

This law says the State Treasurer must take care of all federal money that is given to the state for job‑training programs and put it into a special fund.

Key Takeaways

  • •The Treasurer is the person in charge of any federal vocational‑education money the state gets.
  • •All of that money must be kept safe and not mixed with other state funds.
  • •The money is placed in the Vocational Education Federal Fund for later use on job‑training programs.

Example

The U.S. government sends $5 million to the state to help fund a new welding school.

The Treasurer receives that money, keeps it safe, and deposits it into the Vocational Education Federal Fund, so the money can later be used for the welding school.
