House and Senate Budget Would Boost TIF, Charters - Politics K-12 - Education Week


House and Senate Budget Would Boost TIF, Charters - Politics K-12 - Education Week:

"Remember that long-delayed fiscal year 2010 spending bill, which was approved by the House of Representatives, and by the Senate Appropriations Committee, both in July.

The measure was never considered by the full Senate, but December is crunch time, so a House and Senate conference committee decided to skip that step last night and approved a compromise version of the bill. Now the measure is expected to be voted on by the full House and full Senate so it can go to President Obama for his signature."
