No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
Local Government Impact
The bill would require each school district board to take a vote within six months of the bill's effective date on whether to adopt a policy requiring every campus of the district to provide a period of prayer and Bible reading. However, no significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
