House budget committee set to restore $250M for education aid, employee salaries
The House Appropriations Committee on Friday afternoon is expected to find $250 million in Gov. Larry Hogan’s proposed $40 billion budget to fully fund education aid formulas and a state employee pay bump.
State employees already began receiving the 2% cost-of-living pay increase in January, and this will continue it through the year.
