The per-pupil foundation grant would not change. As proposed by Gov. Jennifer Granholm, this budget depends on passage of $557 million tax increase, expanding the state sales tax to services.

Received
Passed in the House 95 to 5 (details)
To appropriate $259 million in federal "stimulus" money to increase school aid payments by $111 per student for higher-spending schools, and $222 for lower spending ones. This is a re-do of House Bill 5872, whose federal "edu-jobs" stimulus distribuion formula was vetoed by Gov. Granholm because it may have violated federal strings tied to the money. The bill also makes an adjustment to school aid increases to cover the cost of a "unfunded mandate" lawsuit over a new student performance data collection requirement.
Substitute offered
To adopt a version that also appropriates some unspent school aid fund money left-over from the previous fiscal year.
