TASB Talks: Lege Update May 25, 2023
Manage episode 364323562 series 1409139
"The last train out of Dodge" for vouchers this session is House Bill 100. The bill was passed in the House as a school finance bill. Earlier this week though, the Senate added a voucher program to the bill and made other changes. In its current form in the Senate, HB 100:
- Includes a $1.8 billion voucher/education savings account program.
- Increases the basic allotment by $50.
- Includes additional funding for charter facilities.
- Eradicates school district attendance zones.
We discuss more on HB 100, property tax relief, and the budget as the days left in the session dwindle.
