Iowa lawmakers favor boosting state aid for schools
Iowa legislators in a AP survey show broad backing for increasing state aid to public schools over several years. Supporters favor raising the income or sales tax or both to cover costs, with proposals to reach around 37 percent of operating costs by 1967 and lift aid to about 136 million annually. Some warn against replacing property taxes without safeguards, while others suggest alternative funding and even targeted tax reforms to favor school districts.
