The conference committee members work to resolve the two very different versions of HF4300 put forth by the House and Senate. Their ability to do so will determine if an education bill passes this year, and whether or not that bill will contain additional funding for education.
HF 4300 is the education omnibus bill. As it currently stands the Senate is only interested in including literacy provisions in HF 4300 while the House and Governor would like to include much more funding for education, including funding for the special education cross subsidy.
ACTION ALERT!
It is an important time to advocate for legislators to fund the Special Education Cross Subsidy. For a reminder of why this is so important please take a moment to view the video linked in our bio. This impacts every school in MN!! More info in comments.
