Counties urge Pritzker to say yes to donor funds for students – Illinois Policy

As of May 29, 13 county boards had adopted resolutions urging Gov. JB Pritzker to opt Illinois into a new federal program that will funnel donated funds to students for tutoring, special-needs services and other academic uses. The board resolutions follow a March 17 nonbinding ballot question in 31 counties in which 63 percent of those who voted on it supported opting in.
