The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2026 and referred to the House Education Funding committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 27, 2026, with 6 people signed in online: 3 in support and 3 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on February 17, 2026 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 10–8. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 5, 2026 the House voted to pass it on a roll call 185–162. It crossed to the Senate on March 5, 2026 and was referred to the Senate Education Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 1, 2026. The committee voted unanimously, 4–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 23, 2026 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 21, 2026 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 12, 2026, making it Chapter 133 of the session laws.
