House committee roll call threatens education amendment
Illinois lawmakers debate a proposed constitutional change to require the state pay 50 percent of K-12 education costs. Supporters, led by Rep. George Scully, say clarity on costs is needed, while Republicans demand details on what counts toward costs. The measure passed a Democratic House committee on a party-line vote and heads to the full House with a March 3 deadline, as backers press for GOP support and broader lobbying.
