The Florida House on Friday advanced a bill to expand three of the state’s school choice voucher programs, adopting an amendment that could double the eligibility for taxpayer-funded scholarships, making them more accessible to middle-class families.

House Bill 7067, spearheaded by House Education Committee Chairwoman Jennifer Sullivan, R-Eustis, will be heard in a binding third-reading vote on the House floor early next week.
