2016 House Bill 5296 ↩

Senate Roll Call 142: Passed

To appropriate $48.7 million to keep the insolvent Detroit school district afloat until the end of the current school year. This is essentially a "down-payment" on a larger bailout package whose details have yet to find a consensus (the House majority wants more education reforms, and is not friendly toward Senate-passed bills that potentially restrict the expansion of school choice in the city).
