Heartsill-Murra
District 28 State Representative Greg Heartsill has responded to an e-mail by Knoxville School Superintendent Cassi Murra regarding supplemental state aid (SSA) to schools.

In the letter, Murra asked both Heartsill and District 14 State Senator Amy Sinclair to either consider voting for a 4 percent increase in SSA or vote against a proposed tax cut bill.
Heartsill reiterated that he feels a 1.25 percent increase is best the state can deliver without additional cuts to other programs, higher taxes, or violating budgeting principles.
