HELENA – A bipartisan coalition in the state House on Monday amended and then endorsed a historic rewrite of public school funding in Montana, likely setting the bill on a path to Gov. Steve Bullock for his signature into law.

"You have to prepare our young people to go on, and this bill does it," said Rep. Duane Ankney, R-Colstrip. "Not only that, but it provides a stable form of funding."
