A bill funding pay raises for new teachers passed the Idaho House 60-7 on Monday.

House Bill 153, which will boost starting teachers’ pay to $40,000 over the next two years, already passed overwhelmingly and was signed into law last week.

The Idaho Press reports, since the bill passed after the education funding bill that includes teacher pay passed, lawmakers had to pass a separate bill to pay for these raises.

Starting teacher pay, which is $35,800 a year now, will go up to $38,500 in the 2019-2020 school year and $40,000 in 2020-2021. The bill now heads to the Senate.
