Iowa bill would overhaul AEAs and cut funding options
Castello and others rallied at the Iowa Capitol against House Study Bill 542 by Gov. Reynolds to overhaul area education agencies and let districts opt out of special education services. Republicans warned of changes to come as the bill advances in both chambers while Democrats denounced loss of local control. Reynolds argues the plan improves outcomes for students with disabilities amid higher spending, with the proposal shifting funds to districts and potentially contracting with third parties, while preserving a $35 million levy for AEAs and shifting media funding elsewhere.
