Issue Position: Accelerate and Fully Implement the RI School Funding Formula

Issue Position

Cities like East Providence can't wait for the funding formula to be fully implemented. RI's long negligence in the area of school funding has resulted in catastrophic economic consequences for our city. It's not about increased funding; it's about smarter distribution of that funding. The state, and not the local property tax payer, must take on more of that responsibility.
