The coming 2016 fall elections influenced legislative activity for charter public schools during this year's state legislative sessions. This November, legislative elections will be held in 46 states, and gubernatorial elections will be held in 12 states. These looming elections became an excuse for some legislators to avoid tough votes on pro-charter bills, while motivating some other legislators to introduce anti-charter bills. This report summarizes this years state legislative activity across the country, organized into the following categories: no-law states, authorizing and accountability, funding and facilities, and other issues.
