Senate Passes Reform Legislation to End Mismanagement

The Senate on Tuesday took decisive action to end mismanagement and financial abuses at the Commonwealth’s education collaboratives, which help teach children with special needs. With a unanimous vote, the Senate passed legislation that establishes strict oversight and accountability of the state’s 30 institutions.

“Education Collaboratives are a great way for towns and cities to maximize educational resources,” stated Senator Welch.  “However, we need to be sure they are appropriately managing tax payer dollars.”
