Explanation

(This amendment restores $5.0 million each the first year and $12.0 million each the second year for George Mason University and Old Dominion University to begin addressing funding disparities due to enrollment growth for in-state students, continued increases in two-year transfer students, and educational program development to support economic growth. Funding was included in the budget passed in March, was subsequently unallotted in April due to the COVID-19 pandemic and eliminated in the introduced budget for the Special Session. This amendment restores half of the original amount of funding in the first year and the full amount in the second year.)
