Introduced
by
To remove the state superintendant of education from direct oversight of the emergency financial managers appointed to failing school districts like Detroit’s, and instead place this authority in a new “education financial emergency resolution board” consisting of the state superintendent, several other cabinet officials, plus the president of the local school board and the state Attorney General as nonvoting members. Also, to prohibit the governor appointing an emergency financial manager whose only experience is in the private sector, not in government.
Referred to the Committee on Local, Intergovernmental, and Regional Affairs
