Repeals the contingent reduction in special education aid appropriations in Minnesota.

The bill repeals the requirement for a contingent reduction in special education aid appropriations in Minnesota. It mandates that the legislature identify provisions recommended by the Blue Ribbon Commission on Special Education. If the savings from these provisions are less than $250,000,000, the commissioner of education must reduce the special education cross subsidy aid factor to achieve the necessary savings. This change applies to the biennium starting July 1, 2027, and each subsequent biennium.
