Education Committees Hear First Set of 2024 Bills

Last week, both the Senate and Assembly Education committees dispensed with their first hearings to consider newly introduced bills in 2024. Altogether, the two committees heard over 45 bills. We wanted to highlight a few of the major bills that passed and will now move on to the next steps in the legislative process. You can also find a list of all the actions taken by the committees here.

Gavin Payne - January 2024 Update

This morning, Governor Newsom released his initial draft of the 2024-25 budget.

First, the big news: earlier, the Legislative Analyst had recently opined that the state’s budget shortfall (covering 3 years) would total $68 billion. Significantly, the Department of Finance estimates that shortfall to be only $38 billion. Although revenues are still down, The Governor’s proposed budget reflects that lower deficit number.

Trailer Bill Changes to LRE Block Grant Featured Photo

Trailer Bill Changes to LRE Block Grant

There appears to be some confusion regarding proposed Learning Recovery Emergency Block Grant (LRE) trailer bill language that is related to a recent lawsuit settlement agreement. While we do not have all the answers yet, we can clarify that (1) there is not a new $2 billion pot of funding related to either LRE or the settlement and (2) neither the trailer bill language nor the settlement proposes to scoop up money from some LEAs and/or students and provide it to others.

Revenue Picture and Assessment of Prop 98 Maneuver

On Friday, February 16, 2024, the California Department of Finance (DOF) confirmed that state general fund revenues as of January 31 came in $5.9 billion below the Governor’s budget projections for the current fiscal year. Obviously not good news, but also not surprising in the context of the views shared by the Legislative Analyst’s Office (LAO) in their November and most recent February forecasts.
