Capitol Chats: WEAC's Wirtz-Olsen says more school referendums ahead without funding formula changes

from WisPolitics.com · host wispolitics

In this week’s Capitol Chats podcast, Wisconsin Education Association Council President Peggy Wirtz-Olsen says the $1.4 billion in combined school budget referendum requests across Wisconsin is a sign public schools need more funding and the funding formula is broken. Data provided to WisPolitics by the Wisconsin Policy Forum show this year to be the third-highest ask from schools since 2000. Wirtz-Olsen also talks about a new AAPI curriculum bill and the Senate’s rejection of Gov. Tony Evers’ nomination of John Miller to the UW Board of Regents.
