Teachers' Union: Gimme Mo' MONEY!

 The Teachers' Union is behind this.  The school districts are window dressing.

 A coalition of Wisconsin school districts, teachers’ unions, advocacy groups, parents, students and others announced a lawsuit Tuesday against the state Legislature, alleging that it’s failing to fund public schools adequately.

The lawsuit, filed Monday in Eau Claire County Circuit Court, argues that schools are in crisis, with high-needs students facing the greatest risk. It asks the court to adopt a new finance system that meets the needs of districts unless the Legislature and governor enact one first “in a timely fashion.”...

In Wisconsin, the Legislature determines the amounts and distributions of tax moneys.

Not the courts.  Not the tax-takers.

But that's what the Wisconsin Constitution says.  God only knows what "penumbras and emanations" will be discovered by SCOWI.  And yes, we use that phrase deliberately.
