Referred to the Committee on Appropriations
Reported without amendment
With the recommendation that the substitute (H-1) be adopted and that the bill then pass.
Amendment offered
by
To appropriate the department's full year budget, not just three month’s worth.
The amendment failed by voice vote
Passed in the House 57 to 50 (details)
The House version of a Department of Education budget for the 2021-22 fiscal year that begins Oct. 1, 2021. This would appropriate $135.3 million in gross spending, or three months worth of the total for the year.
Referred to the Committee of the Whole
Passed in the Senate 20 to 16 (details)
To send the bill back to the House "stripped" of all actual appropriations except $100 “placeholders.” This is part of a process for reconciling the House and Senate-passed department budgets for the next fiscal year.
Failed in the House 0 to 109 (details)
To concur with the Senate-passed version of the bill. The failed vote is a procedural device used for launching negotiations over the differences between the House and Senate budgets, and eventually for negotiating a final budget between a Republican-controlled legislature and a Democratic governor.
