Alabama’s $9.3 billion 2025 education budget and other spending bills are expected on the Senate floor later in the week.

Also pending, but with a murkier path forward, are a host of sales and income tax exemption and tax credit bills that passed the House earlier but haven’t received votes in the upper chamber. Those include the high-profile proposal to give employers tax credits if they help provide day care for employees and several others taking state sales tax off items ranging from diapers to hearing aids to farmers’ fence posts.

All of them would pull revenue from the Education Trust Fund.
