A set of state lawmakers want to extend CPS’ current school closing moratorium to February 1, 2027 – the same year CPS is set to transition to a fully-elected school board. That means schools like Manley High School, with capacity for more than 1,000 students but enrollment of just 78, can’t be closed for anther three years. The school spends $45,000 per student, but just 2.4% of students read at grade level.
Hopefully, all media will get the message, in Illinois, too.
Ted joined Tom Miller of WJPF to talk about Illinois’ highest-in-the-nation property taxes, why lawmakers don’t want to touch the tax’s cost drivers, just how much Illinoisans’ tax burden has grown over the decades, why Gov. Pritzker failed to meet his promise to reform property taxes, and more.
Governor Flintstone thinks we taxpayers don’t know who will end up paying the proposed higher business taxes! Taxpayers.
Great work Ted. Maybe you can get at lest a few more Republicans to stand up to this nonsense.
yea,good luck with replicrats,theyre in on the scam too,as long as the unions send them a check,its all good for the fake ass republicrats!!
Will these new taxes apply to his inherited business interests too or are there built in gimmicks like toilet removals to shelter his, as well as a lot of other Illinois insiders, own interests?
Has the fat-man trust-fund kid gone crazy? A Billion dollar tax increase on Illinois business. Watch the Illinois Exodus turn into the Illinois Stampede. When’s the next plane to Florida?
He’s a great guy, wreck the state and raise taxes. Typical democrat whenever his programs and plans go sideways it’s someone else’s fault. He diddu nothin. Caught removing the toilets, it was MKs idea; throw his wife under the bus! Baby is crying, momma is hungover and trying to sleep it off. Baby is dissing me! I Noah’s it. Throw the baby out the window and sleep it off. Lori is shocked and blames the police?
