Bill > HB06211

This bill aims to prevent the Governor and the executive branch from reducing or rescinding education cost-sharing grants (also known as equalization aid grants) that towns are entitled to receive during a fiscal year. Specifically, the bill would amend two sections of Connecticut's general statutes to prohibit the executive branch from making any cuts or reductions to these education grants once they have been allocated to a town. The purpose of this legislation is to provide towns with financial predictability and stability in their education funding, ensuring that schools can rely on the full amount of their promised state support throughout the fiscal year without the risk of unexpected budget cuts. By preventing mid-year rescissions, the bill seeks to protect local education budgets and maintain consistent funding for school districts.
