During schedule consideration on April 15, Representative Amadee asked Doctor Kim Hunter Reed (a higher education official asked to testify) to provide information about a Lumina Foundation grant listed in the executive budget. Amadee requested the grant’s stated purpose, expected outcomes and a record of the grant from 2019 to the present.
