As reported by WisPolitics.com, Joint Committee on Finance voted Thursday to put $128 million in state tax dollars into K-12 education, rework the federal money to reward districts that have been offering in-person instruction and end the tuition freeze in the UW System. Along with the $128 million boost in GPR, the GOP motion on K-12 would transfer $350 million to the state's budget stabilization fund that could be tapped later for education costs and other expenses. According to the Legislative Fiscal Bureau, the state would have to spend almost 35.3 percent of all GPR on K-12 in each year of the 2021-23 budget to meet the requirement for $1.5 billion under the American Rescue Plan that President Biden signed. For $686.1 million under the Consolidated Appropriations Act that President Trump signed, the state would have to meet that mark for only the 2021-22 fiscal year. The federal guidance also requires the state to maintain its current commitment to higher education funding to qualify for the K-12 money. In this segment, committee members Sen. Duey Stroebel (R-Saukville) and Sen. Jon Erpenbach (D-West Point) debate the distribution of federal K-12 education money.
