$4 million more to the $3 million included in the Chair’s proposal – for a total of $7 million. Good News!<o:p></o:p></span></p>

the House Appropriations proposal with the Senate’s proposal. You can expand the spreadsheet to show the Governor’s and State Board’s proposals by clicking on the “+” signs at the top of the sheet just above the “F” and “L” columns.
