Committee re‑refers two technical education bills to Ways & Means and Taxes
Summary
The committee re‑referred House File 10,48 to Ways and Means and House File 10,49 to the Taxes Committee. Staff described both as technical fixes with no practical fiscal effect.
The House Education Finance Committee on March 18 re‑referred two vehicle bills for further consideration: House File 10,48 to the Committee on Ways and Means and House File 10,49 to the Committee on Taxes.
Representative (from the gavel) moved House File 10,48 to be re‑referred to Ways and Means. Committee staff described HF1048 as a technical insertion of a missing word — "adjusted for the pupil unit" — that does not change current practice but corrects the statute’s wording.
Committee members then re‑referred House File 10,49 to the Committee on Taxes. Staff described HF1049 as a clarifying change to specify that library aid applies to school districts that are independent or special school districts (the operating districts in Minnesota), and said the change has no practical fiscal effect.
Both motions were adopted by voice vote and the bills were re‑referred to the committees named by the chair.
