State Capital Highlights Texas lawmakers push school finance fix
In Austin the Senate approved a 25 to 6 vote on a compromise plan to share property taxes with low wealth districts, with options including sending revenue to the state or forming new taxing districts. The measure aims to meet a June 1 Texas Supreme Court deadline and could be signed by Gov. Ann Richards. The plan favors shifting 400 to 600 million annually from 109 wealthier districts and faces House approval ahead of October 1993 deadlines.
