There’s an “elephant” in the Wyoming Capital this year and according to Governor Mark Gordon it’s the future of the state’s K-12 education.
Speaking to the 66th Wyoming Legislature on Wyoming’s PBS YouTube channel yesterday, Gordon stressed that solving the dilemma is a “moral obligation”…
The Governor told the legislators that the funding model used for the past decades is no longer sustainable and “kicking the can down the road” will not solve the problem…
There are more than a dozen separate bills up for consideration relating to school funding during the current general session of the legislature, including HB182 that calls for a 4% personal income tax would raise an estimated $337 million per year for the Wyoming School Foundation program.
