Bill > SCR114

This Concurrent Resolution proposes an amendment to the State Constitution to alter how public schools are funded. Specifically, it aims to establish new minimum and maximum requirements for local property taxes used to fund school districts, mandating that these local tax levies account for at least 20% and no more than 80% of a school district's total general fund expenditures. Additionally, the resolution seeks to set minimum and maximum State support for the excess costs associated with educating students who require special education services, requiring the State to fund at least 80% and up to 100% of these costs. If approved, this proposed amendment will be put before voters in the next general election.
