Assemblyman Brian Curran (Lynbrook-21st A.D.) has taken a stand for education by voting to fully fund Nassau County schools. Curran's opposition to the governor's proposed cuts to foundation aid played a significant role in ensuring that these cuts were not included in the final budget. Additionally, the restoration of the Hold Harmless and a compromised inflation factor to the formula resulted in additional aid for schools in Curran's district.

"I was proud to vote to fully fund our schools, our children’s education is paramount, and we must ensure they are funded to the greatest extent possible to meet their needs. I will always look out for our children, and I am glad the governor and Legislature listened to me and my colleagues and took all cuts to foundation aid out of the budget," said Curran.

Curran's dedication to securing funding for education highlights his commitment to prioritizing the needs of students in his district. By advocating for adequate funding, Curran has demonstrated his unwavering support for the educational development and well-being of the children in Nassau County.

As a result of Curran's efforts and the collaborative decision-making process, schools in his district have received essential financial support to continue providing quality education to students. Curran's proactive stance on fully funding schools underscores the importance of investing in the future through education.
