Open the original- What it measures
- The agency lists the adjusted amounts beside the statute's original $2,500 and $7,500. The adjustment is made every two years to track inflation.
- What it does not show
- The adjusted amounts are the operative ones from January 1, 2025. The statute's printed text still shows $2,500 and $7,500, so a reader who checks only the statute will see the older figures.
