Briscoe Finance Plan Rejected By House Committee
Texas Education Committee votes 7-5 to reject Gov. Dolph Briscoe’s school finance proposal and approve Rep. Dan Kubiak’s costlier plan. Kubiak’s bill would spend over 800 million dollars, raise starting teacher salaries to 10 000, and go to the full House with debate expected late next week or May 12. Briscoe vows veto if tax increases are required.
