Additional school unemployment aid appropriation
SF 2188 appropriates $105 million from the general fund to the Minnesota Department of Education for school unemployment aid under Minnesota Statutes §124D.995, specifically for the 2026 fiscal year. This is a one-time funding allocation, not a new program, and must comply with existing requirements in §124D.995. The bill directly affects school districts and employees eligible for unemployment aid through the state's established program. It does not create new eligibility criteria or alter current benefit structures.
