The bill also caps local contributions at 2% growth, shifting $30 million to the state. Despite bipartisan support, the Senate is cautious about potential funding gaps and rejected a push to let districts join a state health pool. Negotiations are ongoing for a broader education bill, with a potential one-time funding boost of $158 million. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
