Did not vote on an amendment for 2009 House Bill 4447 (Appropriations: 2009-2010 School Aid budget ). The amendment failed in the Senate (14 to 20) on June 24, 2009, to add $6.3 million for extra instructional and non-instructional programs for schools considered to have a higher number of "at risk" students because of the numbers eligible for federal free lunch programs.
