Democrats Not Giving Up Battle For Education Funding

In Annapolis Democrats, along with the man credited with establishing the state's education funding formula ,will gather on Tuesday, to urge Governor Larry Hogan to spend the $68-million added to the budget for the state's 13 largest school systems.

The governor hasn't said if he will spend the money.

Last week he was worried the education spending and another 70-million dollars added to the budget would add to the state's structural deficit next year.

On Maryland's News This Week, Senate Budget Committee Vice Chairman Rich Madaleno said the structural deficit is the result of lawmakers being required to project spending five years into the future, and funding schools now is a bigger priority.

  2. If you are talking the largest school systems in Maryland, then that would be Montgomery County. Lots of 1% live there so just have them ante up. No need to punish the rest of us.

  6. Improve the economy so parents can teach their kids at home like they did way back then. Kids were actually much smarter using common sense than those today. Kids of the early 1900s could at least survive on their own if they had to. Not today.
