Explanation
(This amendment supplements funding provided in the introduced budget for student financial aid. The budget, as introduced, provided a total of $4.1 million from the general fund each year in additional student financial aid; however, funding at some institutions remains below the statewide average of meeting 35 percent of remaining student need. This supplemental funding is provided to move student financial aid for the institution closer to the statewide average.)
