Delegate Kirk Cox (R-Colonial Heights) today announced a House budget proposal to help local schools with possible layoffs of any eligible school division employees.  By enacting this Session the House’s Teacher and Support Staff Enhanced Retirement Incentive Plan, it will lessen the possibility of having to layoff younger teachers and other school division employees as well as help Virginia’s schools better manage their budget in these extraordinarily difficult economic times.
