Education Bill Nears Final Passage

The education bill H.955 is racing through the Senate with a surprise bipartisan amendment that sidesteps school district consolidations—marking a major shift from the Governor’s prior push. If it passes soon, it could be signed into law by Wednesday, ending the session with a finalized education plan. A key win: the foundation formula could launch as early as July 2029, with simplified requirements and no need for merger votes. Meanwhile, S.325, reforming Act 250 and Act 181, is nearing closure with a new exemption for farm events—though its wording may create regulatory overlap with local towns.
