Reinstate the Joint Education Oversight Committee

HB 569 reinstates the Joint Education Oversight Committee, a bipartisan body composed of representatives and senators appointed by their respective chamber leaders. The committee is authorized to study current education policies, evaluate how state funds are used by schools and universities, and review specific programs to ensure they meet their goals and are managed efficiently. It can request data from state agencies, hire staff to assist its work, and submit reports with recommendations to the General Assembly, though its reviews do not stop the legislature from passing laws.
