The existing level of reporting already meets the standards of this bill's requirements. The bill is not needed

This is too much of a burden and ask for our schools at this point. It's subject to so much change and maybe when the schools can afford to get the pencils they need, then they can take on this arduous task. It's just not a reasonable priority right now.

I don't agree with this bill. Children need to get out and get fresh air away from Electronics.

Another unfunded mandate on school districts. Budgets are already public. This bill adds paperwork, invites misinterpretation, and does nothing to fix state underfunding. More bureaucracy. No benefit. Oppose.

Transparent, line-item school budgets empower voters, families, and educators to understand how public education funds are used and promote accountability without undermining educational quality.

Why re-invent the wheel? The Department of Education makes it clear that the reporting mechanism in place already meets the bill’s requirements.
