Block grant bill approved by House Appropriations

“‘Trickery. Trickery. Trickery,’ said Rep. Kathy Wolfe Moore, D-Kansas City.

“’I’m pretty sure school boards spent the whole weekend … looking at this bill. And then to have it rushed through in 24 hours is ridiculous. It’s probably one of the biggest decisions we make this year and it certainly commanded a little more time and attention than what we gave it,’ Wolfe Moore said. ‘This is just a way to speed the bill through with less eyes on it.'”
