What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill prohibits the Department of Public Instruction from making certain

reductions in state aid paid to a school district until the electors of a school district

have approved the reduction in state aid by a referendum vote. Current law requires

DPI to reduce the state aid paid to a school district in a school year by the amount

paid in that school year to a private school participating in the Racine or statewide

parental choice program for each pupil who resides in that school district but who

attends a private school under the Racine or statewide parental choice program.
