What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the estimated cost of the payments made to the private

schools participating in the Milwaukee Parental Choice Program is partially offset

by a reduction in the general school aid otherwise paid to the Milwaukee Public

Schools (MPS) by an amount equal to 38.4 percent of the cost. Beginning in the

2013-14 school year, the 38.4 percent aid reduction is reduced by 3.2 percentage

points each year, resulting in a total phase-out of the aid reduction in 12 years.

This bill requires a 9.6 percentage point reduction each year, resulting in a

four-year phase-out of the MPS aid reduction.
