Education group calls on State Senate to Fix New York State's funding system for schools.

By Chris Ulanowski

Oswego, NY – A group seeking to overhaul the way New York State funds public schools is calling on the republican-controlled State Senate to take action.
The Alliance for Qaulity Education is launching a campaign this week demanding that the state senate respond to a two-year old landmark court ruling that requires the state to fix the funding system. WRVO's Chris Ulanowski asked A-Q-E's Director Billy Easton why the issue has remained stalled for so long.
