Senator GROOMS proposed the following amendment (935R018.KMM.LKG):

Amend the bill, as and if amended, by adding an appropriately lettered new subsection to Section 59-8-135 to read:

/ (_)If in any year the scholarship awards do not reach the capacity provided for in subsection (A), then students meeting the requirements of Section 59-8-110(3)(a) and (b) who would not be otherwise eligible may apply to the program. Priority shall be given on a household income basis. Applicants residing in households with lower household income shall receive first priority in the award of scholarships./
