Smith Budget Clash Over School Fund Bond Plan Debated
The Cavness amendment would freeze mineral lease revenue for teacher salaries and textbooks, while Smith's bond program would tap the same funds to service 45 million dollars in revenue bonds over 10 to 20 years. The House approved Cavness easily. Smith's plan barely passed out of committee. Leaders aim to place a five to six amendment package before voters in a May special election, before the May 31 session end.
