Minn. House recalls HF 3220 and re-refers it to Capital Investment to redirect unused Safe Schools funds
Summary
On April 24, 2025, the Minnesota House recalled House File 3220 from the Committee on Education Finance and re-referred it to the Committee on Capital Investment. Representative Green said the move would redirect unused 2018 Safe Schools funds to purchase law-enforcement entry devices for schools. The motion passed by voice vote.
The Minnesota House of Representatives on April 24, 2025 voted to recall House File 3220 from the Committee on Education Finance and re-refer it to the Committee on Capital Investment. Representative Green moved the measure and the motion prevailed on a voice vote.
Representative Green said the bill relates to “2018 Safe School funds” that currently sit in capital investment and that the amendment would “redirect those unused funds to schools for law enforcement entry devices.” She added, “I’ve spoken to all 4 co-chairs and they all agree with this amendment.”
The motion was made by Representative Green; the transcript does not record a second or a roll-call tally. The presiding officer announced “Motion prevails” after a voice vote.
No dollar amount for the “unused funds” was provided in the House discussion, and no committee report or amendment text was included in the transcript. The motion, as recorded, changes the committee referral for HF 3220; the transcript does not show final passage of the bill itself or any subsequent amendments on the House floor.
The action came amid routine floor business that included second readings of multiple House files, introduction of new house files, and messages from the Senate announcing passage of several Senate files now before the House. After the floor action, the House recessed to reconvene later for the governor’s State of the State address.
