An anti-tax group said it will not seek a second veto referendum on new taxes to fund teacher pay raises.
The effort to roll back a tax increase is turned back at the state supreme court. The court ruled the veto referendum was not properly written and will not go to the ballot but the group behind it promises to keep trying.
The group behind the effort to overturn the tax increase to fund teacher pay raises says they're on track to get the signatures they need. They're also disputing the notion the pay raises would be impacted at all.
In November, there could be a vote to eliminate tax increases tied to teacher pay raises. Before that vote can happen, the group trying to get it on the ballot has to gather 41,000 signatures.
A legislative victory for teachers could be reversed. A taxpayer group plans to try to repeal it through a referendum.
There are some critics who don’t agree with what’s happening at the state capitol. Two such groups say their issue is not the funding, but how the money is being raised.
