Bill Caption

Relating to establishing the Texas Commission on Community College Finance.

Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. 

Bill Analysis

SB 1230 would establish a commission on community college finance "to make recommendations for consideration by the 88th Texas Legislature regarding the state funding formula and funding levels for public junior colleges in Texas that would be sufficient to sustain viable junior college education and training offerings throughout the state and improve student outcomes in alignment with state postsecondary goals."

Vote Recommendation Notes

Since we do not know what the findings of this commission will be, whether it be to recommend an increase or decrease in funding for these colleges, we remain neutral on SB 1230.
