Sen. Brady Echoes Governor's Claims

One local lawmaker is backing the claims of Gov. Bruce Rauner.
 
Rauner says democrats are playing games with students and schools in Illinois. Senate Minority leader Bill Brady is calling on Democrats to end the political games and echoes the Governor's words from Wednesday.
 
 
Wednesday, Senate President John Cullerton said he would withhold sending Senate Bill 1 to the Governor until Monday. Lawmakers were in Springfield Wednesday for a special session called by the Governor to hash out a reform of education funding in Illinois.
 
Money is appropriated for schools but not until the legislature comes up with a new funding formula for schools.
 
Schools begin receiving fiscal year 18 revenue from the state in August.
