Iowa Senate OKs 242 Million School Foundation Plan
The Iowa Senate voted 48-0 to approve a 242.2 million school foundation funding plan for 1973-74, shifting state aid to cover 71.7 percent of education costs, with the bill returning to the House for minor amendments. It aims for 80 percent state funding by 1975 and reduces reliance on local property taxes, though tax cuts may not translate to lower bills for many Iowans.
