Governor Mike Dunleavy’s recent vetoes on Alaska’s 2024 budget have slashed more than $87 million in one-time K-12 education funding, among other line-item vetoes. A variety of constituents and educators are urging lawmakers to override the vetoes
Anchorage School District leaders asked lawmakers to hold a special legislative session necessary to override the vetoes. The budget, which Governor Dunleavy already signed, cuts hundreds of millions of dollars in funds including undesignated general funds, operating funds and capital projects.
“It’s a little disingenuous that we don’t have the full picture here when we’re talking about this and, I think for us as educators, we’re going to get by in the Kenai Peninsula Borough School District with a million dollar dip into our fund balance,” Holland said. “It’s going to be very tight next year. We are going to have some smaller cuts that take place.”“Some of my colleagues in districts around the state are going to be in a dire predicament,” he said.
“This BSA increase, even with the governors vetoes, is among the largest single increase ever. None of us respond well to threats and coercion and I doubt, even with the district administrators letters, that there are enough members in the house to call a special session or to override the Governors vetoes.
