$100,000 FOR ADVANCED MATH AND SCIENCE (H 4040)

By Bob Katzen

The House 151-3, Senate 37-1, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $100,000 (reducing funding from $3.3 to $3.2 million) for a program to increase participation and performance in advanced placement courses, particularly among underserved populations, to prepare students for college and career success in science, technology, engineering, math and English.

“I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary based on historical spending in this line,” said Healey in her veto message.

(A “Yes” vote is for the $100,000. A “No” vote is against it.)

Rep. Christine Barber Yes Rep. Mike Connolly Yes Rep. Paul Donato Yes Rep. Erika Uyterhoeven Yes Sen. Patricia Jehlen Yes
