2009 Senate Bill 252 ↩

Senate Roll Call 476: Passed

To make appropriations for a one-month “interim” school aid budget in the event legislators are not able to resolve a large gap between how much they would like to spend and how much taxes, fees, and borrowed money they expect the state to take in during the fiscal year that begins on Oct. 1, 2009. This incorporates the spending caps agreed to by House Speaker Andy Dillon and Senate Majority Leader Mike Bishop, which on an annual basis means a $218 cut in per pupil school aid, or around 3 percent.
