Repealing the chartered public school eligibility for state school...

This bill, HB515, proposes to change the rules about who can get state money to build and fix schools. Right now, some special public schools, called chartered public schools, can get this money. The bill wants to stop these schools from getting this money.

If the bill becomes a law, chartered public schools will no longer be able to use state money to build or fix their schools. This change could affect students, teachers, and parents at these schools.

The bill was introduced on January 14, 2025. It was reviewed by a committee, which decided it is not a good idea to make this change. On March 6, 2025, the House voted that it was not a good idea to make this change, with 212 people voting against it and 159 people voting for it. The bill has now stopped moving forward in the legislative process.
