According to the Lincoln Journal-Star, "A dramatic downturn in last month's state tax receipts prompted Gov. Dave Heineman Wednesday to call for a special session of the Legislature for early November." The Governor has asked state agencies to limit travel expenses and not fill any job vacancies unless absolutely essential.
I don't anticiapte that the state will make any changes to the state aid that was certifed to school districts for this current school year, but unless the economy turns around there could be less state aid to schools in 2010-2011. We will find out more in November when the legislature hears what the Governor has to say.
