Iowa Gov Ray criticizes school funding defeat
DES MOINES AP Gov Robert Ray said the legislature’s vote against his school financing plan hurts Iowa taxpayers. The House defeated the bill 66 to 20 with only 20 Republicans voting yes. Ray warned the outcome may force higher costs or no plan at all and suggested taking his plan on a statewide speaking tour. He argued the proposal would fund schools amid growth and ease property taxes while lawmakers used it as a starting point for broader benefits. Rep Elizabeth Shaw called the plan fairest and most relief oriented, while Rep Delwyn Stromer critiqued it.
