Now house Republicans have introduced House Bill 1489 in attempt to secure funding the lifeline scholarships. Eligible families would be those with a household income 350 percent below the Federal Poverty guidelines or whose children attend the “lowest-performing schools.”
The bill has been introduced in the house education committee before a vote could happen on the house floor.
