Education organizations and advocates urge Governor Ducey to call special session, end inflationary funding lawsuit
WHAT:
More than a dozen organizations are joining together to call on Governor Doug Ducey to put an end to the expensive [Prop. 301] inflationary funding lawsuit by calling a special session and demanding legislative leaders honor the will of the voters and pay the court-mandated debt to schools. Advocates are urging the Governor and legislature to use the estimated $325 million in state surplus revenues to address the urgent needs of schools and the students they serve. The press conference will be conducted in both English and Spanish.
