All about it…

Here’s a link to my full story at spokesman.com on today’s historic public school budget-setting, in which public schools were given their first ever cut in funding from the amount they received the previous year, and here’s a link to the final figures on the school budget that JFAC set today.

Tonight on Idaho Public TV’s Idaho Reports, I’ll join Boise State University political scientist emeritus Jim Weatherby, House Education Chairman Bob Nonini, R-Coeur d’Alene, Rep. Bill Killen, D-Boise, Senate Assistant Majority Leader Joe Stegner, R-Lewiston, and host Thanh Tan to discuss the legislative developments of the week, including today’s budget-setting. Tune in and check it out; it airs at 8 p.m. today, replays on Sunday at 11:30 a.m. Mountain time, 10:30 Pacific time, and can also be viewed online here after it airs, along with the additional “After the Show” discussion.
