If enacted, Title II-A would receive a total of $2.555 billion for FY2020. So this sounds like great news – why is advocacy so important now?
While this is a very positive start, we are very early on in the appropriations process and we face several significant hurdles ahead including negotiations with the White House around increased spending caps, a Senate version of appropriations still to be revealed and then negotiations around a final number. Members of Congress need to hear loudly that Title II-A is critical to your schools and district as well as the impact that the dollars have for educators and students.
