McCleary Blame Game: Where Is the $21B Really Going?
Published 1 week, 3 days ago
Description
Ryan Frost of the Washington Policy Center argues that blaming McCleary for Washington's budget pressures obscures a larger reality: since 2019, non-K-12 spending has surged $20.88 billion, or 82%, nearly three times faster than K-12 growth, accounting for roughly three-quarters of total state budget expansion. https://clarkcountytoday.com/story/opinion-mccleary-really-blame-washingtons-budget-woes #WashingtonState #StateBudget #McCleary #K12Education #FiscalPolicy #WashingtonPolicyCenter #Opinion #Politics #ClarkCounty
