Explanation

(This amendment captures savings the second year from the general fund by eliminating $5.4 million in flexible early childhood funds that were provided to allow the Virginia Preschool Initiative and various early childhood expansion initiatives to be responsive to demand among each of the initiatives. Because language added during the 2021 Special Session I provided administrative flexibility to shift funds from undersubscribed early childhood initiatives to higher-demand early childhood initiatives, the $5.4 million in flexible funds are no longer necessary.)
