No Budget Growth for Iowa Schools Branstad Plan
Gov. Branstad will provide no new money for K-12 schools for two years and will not fund state employee pay raises. He says he would restore funding shifts from the current year and requires no allowable growth increases to districts for the next two fiscal years.
