@kare11news: Public Schools in Minnesota are going to see a boost in funding thanks to voters who overwhelmingly approved a new constitutional amendment.

Maya 🇨🇩🇸🇩🇵🇸 :

The fact that anyone voted against it is actually wild to me. Whose stance is “no we shouldn’t fund schools at literally no cost to anyone?” 😭😭

SuziRider :

How long will it take the state to drain this fund?

Jerry Leroy Kimball :

73%?!?! who said no out of the 27%?!

Ratt :

i just hope they pay teachers more

angryglove :

don't have kids, dont plan on ever having kids, this was still a no brainer for me. Kids deserve so much better, teachers will hopefully benefit from this as well.

꧁•𝔐𝔦𝔰𝔰𝔶𝔠𝔫𝔞𝔑•꧂ :

Kids are our future. 👏

cat :

Why would some say no to this proposal 😕 it’s a no brainer

Dr. Rock Awesome :

This was a no-brainer

twiggy :

No we did not

Autumn Robeen :

As a mother, I was so happy for this!

g-pop :

Just drains the fund till they have to raise taxes

Kayla :

Aaron aka denner :

robbing Peter to pay Paul, and saying both are better for it...

Lucie :

I voted for the funding but they’re lying about not having higher taxes. Property taxes will be raised

krystalized.lyfe :

The amount of blanks left was infuriating, but hey. At least it passed!!!!! 💙

justArt :

oh my gish!!! yay!! it was so sad seeing all the clubs and programs disappeared durring my generation. I hope this brings them back for all the students.

Nebraska has a streetcar for drunk tourists.

Mal :

I’m wondering how many of the no’s were actually filled in and how many were left blank bc folks didn’t know that it would be counted as a no.

muddyscout :

doesn't raise taxes yet. but it will

Maren Markos :

Wait the fund needs to return more than 4.5% yearly to avoid a negative balance? Hopefully the state keeps a eye on that

Wraithbound :

The thing is the fund shouldn’t be touched, it should be added to because what’s ACTUALLY funding the schools is the interest from that account. Balance goes down, interest goes down, funding goes down.

iambuss :

if there's this fund for schools why do we need to vote on it. Just use the money for what its there for..........

chaosaurus.rex :

SO GLAD I voted yes!!!
