Anti double whammy reform aims gain in Illinois schools
Crotty and O'Malley lead a bipartisan push in Springfield to end the so called double whammy taxing scheme that caps property taxes while reducing state aid. They cite Chicago Public Schools and suburban Cook districts as harmed by the two part loss and seek a three year reform with a $1.4 billion construction program and a per student minimum. The measure would adjust state aid formulas and high school funding rules to prevent year to year funding loss and protect low income student money amid shifting enrollments.
