Bains bill would create school funding waiver for immigration raids

Federal immigration raids could be added to the list of reasons schools can cite when seeking attendance-based funding if a bill from Assemblywoman Dr. Jasmeet Bains is signed into law. 

Under the bill from Bains, D-Delano, schools that see a decline in attendance following an immigration enforcement action could still receive funding as they would in the event of other outstanding circumstances.
