School Levies Bill in the Queue

posted by on April 12 at 10:17 AM

Yesterday, I crossed my fingers that the Democratic bill that lowers the hurdle to pass local school levies (from a 60 percent vote to a simple majority vote) would come to the Senate floor.

The bill is on for this morning. It needs 33 votes (two-thirds) to pass because it is a Constitutional amendment.

I hope this bill gets through, I just wish the Legislature had the political will to pass the simple majority bill for Bonds as well.
