What’s in it

This bill relates to the payment of claims associated with nonpublic school pupil transportation.2 (payment of claims for nonpublic school transportation) appropriates from the general fund of the state to the department of education moneys sufficient to pay the approved claims of public school districts for transportation services to nonpublic school pupils. The amount of that appropriation was limited to $8,997,091 by 2025 Iowa Acts, chapter 159.55.2 that was not submitted in a timely manner due to an administrative error.
