ACTION ALERT HB 1!

The ESA will provide $10,400 per student to pay for private school or $1,000 per student to pay for home school, while the current per-student funding (Basic Allotment) for public school students is $6,160, with a proposed increase of only $540 per student in 2025.

ESAs (or vouchers) create a significant new financial commitment for the state, while public schools remain underfunded by more than $14 billion.
Linking ESAs & school funding into one bill ensures additional funding for public schools is held hostage until ESAs are approved.
