Manar, Scherer Rally For Senate Bill 1

Backers of the school funding reform bill gathered outside a Springfield Elementary School yesterday with the architect of Senate Bill One, State Senator Andy Manar, and State Representative Sue Scherer. An emotional Scherer called on Governor Rauner to drop his amendatory veto.
 
 
Manar is hopeful Republicans join the cause.
 
 
Manar says Rauner's amendatory veto leaves Senate Bill One virtually unrecognizable with roughly one hundred changes. The Senate reconvenes Sunday to discuss school funding, the House will come back to the Capitol on Wednesday.
