A bill intended to slow the growth of property taxes to fund Nebraska schools has advanced in the Unicameral.
Senator Kate Sullivan of Cedar Rapids sponsored the bill that would eliminate the minimum levy adjustment. . .

The bill, in fact, increases state aid to schools by 8-and-a-half million dollars, mainly to rural districts.

Senator David Schnoor of Scribner cautions against expecting too much from the measure. . .
