During my first term, I fought to secure the first special education aid increase in over a decade and the largest increase in funding for special education ever in state's history. Tonight I'm proposing the highest ever amount of state education aid funding and we're going to guarantee the state reimburses special education costs at 60%. to ensure every kid gets the public education they deserve. But folks, here's the truth. Our current system isn't working. Take the Mawson School District for example. (27:49–28:00)
