School Aid Fund Vote

The very hardest vote of the day. 3% cut to the School Aid Fund.

This will be the ultimate test of leadership for the Speaker of the House. Remember, 67 Democrats, 43 Republicans and we need to balance the budget after we've been told that 11% is too high of cuts for Townships, 29% is too high for DHS, 25% is too high for Community Health.

Where will opponents find the extra dollars to lower the 3% School reforms.

Hard vote, but interesting to watch the politics. Rep. Cushingberry is making a good point, but I'm not sure how he's voting.

Hang on to your hats!
