Sub-Committee on School Funding 

            The Appropriations Sub-Committee on School Funding began hearings this week to consider school funding in HB 1001 (a.k.a. the Budget Bill).  Included in the House version is a 70% increase for private school vouchers compared to a 5% increase for public school corporations.  The House budget increased the cap to qualify for a voucher from an income of less than $30,000 for a family of four to an income of $220,000 for a family of four!
