House approves education funding including Title II-A increase

from Learning Forward

House approves education funding including Title II-A increase Learning Forward On July 13, the U.S. House of Representatives Appropriations Committee approved the fiscal year 2021 education funding bill, voting to support a $22.5 million increase for Title II-A. This is a win for Learning Forward as it not only preserves last year’s $76 million increase for this critical professional learning program but adds money in a year when Congress’ budget ceiling is not very high. If this bill becomes law — and it still will require the full House to approve, the Senate to approve and the President to sign it, Title II-A will receive $2.154 billion in funding next year. A special shout out to all of the Learning Forward members who reached out to their members of Congress to call for this increase. Your advocacy makes a difference. READ MORE
