Summary

The purpose of this resolution is to ensure legislative oversight on educational policies while still allowing for the State Board of Education to function. However, it would need to navigate potential legal challenges regarding the separation of powers, the independence of educational governance, and the potential for politicization of educational policy. The public's perception of legislative involvement in education will also be crucial in whether such an amendment would pass.
