"There's still a lot more discussion we need on (elementary and secondary education) than where we are at right now," said Rep. Will Davis, D-Homewood, who chairs the education appropriation committee. "Whether or not the leaders, as we would call them, have an interest in holding off on (grade and high school funding). I'm not necessarily encouraging that, but what I am encouraging here is an opportunity to really take a look at what we want to do with (that) funding, moving forward, in a substantial way."
