The House version of HB 2 is a bold plan that invests in our state’s future – in the teachers molding young minds and the schools that anchor our communities.

The Texas Legislature has not raised the basic allotment since 2019. One major change in the committee substitute bill is a change in the base funding for students. The House version of the bill wanted to add $395 per student to the base funding. The Senate change would add just $55 per student.
