Charter school bill loses House vote, but not dead
Mississippi House members don’t want to proceed with a bill including a charter schools expansion favored by the Senate.
The House voted 60-58 Tuesday to reject conference with senators on differences over House Bill 890. The bill, also including provisions raising entry standards for teacher education, remains on the House calendar and could be voted on again before Thursday.
