SB1503 is a bill that expresses the Arizona Legislature's intent to make the appropriations for remedial education at three tribal colleges—Dine College, Tohono O'odham Community College, and San Carlos Apache College—ongoing funding in future years. The bill relates to the $5,000,000 total allocated from the state General Fund for remedial education at these institutions as specified in the FY 2024 General Appropriation Act.
The bill does not introduce new appropriations but rather seeks to ensure that the existing allocations for FY 2024 become a permanent part of future budgets. The bill would take effect on the general effective date.
