Ok, I’m not really in the Capitol. I’m across the street in the State Office Building (affectionately referred to as the “SOB”), sitting in on the K-12 Finance Committee hearing.
Right now we’re hearing a bill about increasing scholarships grants to high school kids who graduate early. Well that just finished, and next up is another bill about a grant program.
However, the bill before this one gave a shout out to AmeriCorps, so I figured I’d mention it… when I heard the conversation turn to AmeriCorps I said to myself, “that is totally going in my blog.” The bill is HF 1046 and it increases funding for the Minnesota Reading Corps. I know I know not Promise Fellows, but still… AmeriCorps! What up!
