GOAL Cap Increased to $150 Million

On the final day of the 2026 Georgia Legislative Session, HB 328 passed, increasing the GOAL cap by $30 million to $150 million annually, with no sunset clause, preserving the long-term protection of this program. The bill was signed into law on May 11, 2026.

Unprecedented Grassroots Support

We are deeply grateful for the strong GOAL community engagement throughout this process, which played a critical role in achieving the positive outcome. In total, nearly 41,000 emails were sent to lawmakers this session through our system, not including the many additional calls, emails, and messages shared directly with legislators.

Expanded Opportunity

This program expansion means an additional 6,000 students will be able to access the school of their choice each year. We are grateful to the Georgia General Assembly for helping to meet the growing demand of this program.
