Education (Elections)

HB 5032 amends Michigan's Revised School Code to prohibit using state school aid funds for special elections. It directly affects school districts and local governments that receive state school aid, preventing them from allocating those funds toward special election costs. The bill specifically amends Section 1361 of the School Code (MCL 380.1361) to add this restriction. This change clarifies that school aid funds must be used solely for educational purposes, not for election-related expenses.
