Does More State Funding Guarantee a Reduction in School Property Taxes?

Many taxpayers were under the impression that state funding would offset school property taxes. It seems we've all been hoodwinked. We send our legislators to Harrisburg to work on our behalf, and now we're told that we're being misled. State funding MUST be linked to reducing school property taxes, or we should be allowed to stop paying school property taxes until it happens.OPEN LETTER TO PA SENATOR ROSEMARY BROWN (R-40):Pennsylvania State Senator Rosemary Brown (R-40) just sent out her Friday, February 28, 2025, late afternoon newsletter about education taxes not being reduced in accordance with federal, state, and local education tax funding being sent out to the schools and school boards. Senator Brown says we all should attend school board meetings to make sure that the funding offsets the school taxes. That's great in theory!
