Moore Says SB 229 Could Benefit Local Schools in a Major Way

By News Director Jared Atha
A bill that passed through the Oklahoma House of Representatives recently should help local brick-and-mortar public schools says District 57 Rep. Anthony Moore, R-Clinton.
Moore says Senate Bill 229, or better known as the Redbud School Funding Act, proposes using medical marijuana taxes and the Common School Building Equalization Fund to provide annual per-student funding grants to eligible school districts and charter schools.
He says the act, if signed by Gov. Kevin Stitt, could be a big boost for local schools in western Oklahoma.
Currently more than 100 schools in the state that have joined together to file a lawsuit against the state school board for their decision made in March, requiring property taxes to be split evenly between public and charter schools.
