The proposed bill, General Assembly Proposed Bill No. 7, aims to enhance educational equity by increasing the funding allocated to public schools. Specifically, it seeks to amend subdivision (9) of section 10-262f of the general statutes by redefining the term "foundation." The bill proposes to raise the foundation amount from $11,525 to $13,500, thereby increasing the financial resources available for public education.

This legislative change is intended to provide additional support to public schools, ensuring that they have the necessary funding to meet the educational needs of students. By increasing the foundation amount, the bill addresses disparities in educational funding and aims to promote a more equitable educational environment across the state.
