AI Summary

This bill proposes to dedicate at least 10% of the state's stabilization fund, also known as the "rainy day fund," to avoiding or mitigating reductions in local aid to cities and towns, including funding for education (Chapter 70 education funding), lottery aid, and additional assistance. The stabilization fund is a reserve account that the state can use to address budget shortfalls or emergencies, and this bill aims to ensure that a portion of those funds are directed towards supporting local governments and the services they provide to their communities.
