appropriation; public schools; trees

This bill allocates $400,000 in state funding for public schools to plant low-emission, climate-appropriate trees on campuses. It prioritizes schools where 75% or more of students qualify for free/reduced-price lunches (under federal nutrition programs), distributing funds first-come, first-served until December 31, 2026. Remaining funds after that date will be available to all public schools on a first-come basis. Schools receiving funds must report on usage and may partner with nonprofits for tree planting.
