Advancing Toward Impact Aid Full Funding Act
School Funding: Increasing Support for Districts on Federal Land
Legislative Progress
House
Key Points
- This bill aims to increase federal "Impact Aid." This is money sent to school districts that lose out on local property taxes because they sit on federal land, such as military bases, Native American reservations, or federal low-rent housing.
- The plan would raise funding every year from 2026 through 2031. For example, basic support for the most affected schools would jump from about $1.49 billion to over $2.3 billion over that five-year period.
- The bill specifically targets more help for students with disabilities and provides extra cash for school construction and repairs, which would more than double to $45 million by 2031.
- Because federal land cannot be taxed by local governments, these school districts often struggle to pay for teachers and supplies. This bill tries to close that budget gap so these students receive the same quality of education as those in other neighborhoods.
