Illinois panel proposes guaranteed foundation funding and tax relief
The commission urges a state guarantee of 50 percent of foundation funding and a total cost of about 1.8 to 1.9 billion, offset by 1.5 billion in local property tax relief. It outlines standards for student achievement, links accountability to funding, and calls for a constitutional amendment to reform school finance. It highlights current disparities, property wealth gaps, and the need to broaden revenue sources and efficiency.
