NO FURTHER COMMENT PROVIDED BY CHRISTIE ON SCHOOL FUND DECISION

A new report says Gov. Chris Christie has gotten very quiet about how he will handle a Supreme Court ruling on school funding. The state Supreme Court has to rule on whether the state needs to repay $1.7 billion in school funding it didn’t provide during this fiscal year. Christie had said on a radio show a couple of weeks ago that he might not do what the court asks. Since then, he has refused to comment further on the matter. The governor had said large scale cuts would be needed to make up the difference.
