Opposition grows to SB 7 funding plan in Texas schools

Bivins favors less reliance on property taxes but warns of a potential revolt if state funding remains insufficient. He critiques replacing property tax revenue with lottery funds, noting taxes raise about 8.5 billion annually versus 600 million from lottery. ECISD Trustee Jim Nelson backs shared funding but rejects abolishing property taxes. The debate spans tax abatements, mandates reimbursements, private school vouchers, abstinence education, and miscellaneous school-law tweaks.

Six slain in Queens apartment after attack survivor notes bodies

Six people, four women and two men aged late teens to early 30s, were found shot or stabbed in a Queens apartment. A female survivor, stabbed in the throat and shot, escaped to a hospital bed and wrote where to find the bodies. The door was open, no forced entry, no drugs found, and detectives probe possible drug activity. Authorities noted crime declines in New York City for 1994 while reporting homicide totals.
