Governors veto surprises locals disaster insurance bill
Four days ago Governor Ogilvie vetoed House Bill 2187 which would require all schools to carry disaster insurance for interscholastic athletes. IHSA assured costs would be covered by the Association, not schools, to avoid burdens on districts. The plan aims to provide $1 to $15 per athlete bids, with total costs possibly $150,000 to $2,250,000.
