HB 6144 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Education: financing; interest-free loans to school districts and intermediate schools districts from the state's surplus funds; allow under certain circumstances. Amends 1855 PA 105 (MCL 21.141 - 21.147) by adding sec. 2g.

This bill allows the state treasurer to provide interest-free loans to school districts and intermediate school districts if the state budget is not passed by October 1. Under the new rules, a district can borrow an amount equal to what it received from the school aid fund in the previous year for a period of up to one year. The state treasurer retains the authority to set additional terms for these loans, which are intended to help districts manage cash flow during budget delays.
