Year after year, the school districts raise property taxes
so much that seniors on fixed incomes and young families
cannot keep pace with these increases.
They are struggling to keep their homes.
House Bill 1 controls on budgets need to be tightened. The
exemptions to the inflation index on spending must be
eliminated.
The index provides more than enough revenue to meet
educational needs.
If the school boards want to spend more than necessary, then
they should seek permission from the public.
Referendums give the community a better opportunity to
participate in the management of education.
The school districts have millions sitting in off-budget
funds; they do not need loopholes to continue their
expensive habits of the past.

"We, the citizens of Pennsylvania, request the exemptions to
the referendum in House Bill 1 be eliminated. The school
districts have more than enough funds and revenue to meet
educational needs."
