Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton says he would veto any education funding legislation like House Republicans propose that does not include $100 million in new funding increase for voluntary preschool programs.

State Rep. Jenifer Loon, House education finance chairwoman, opts to increase school readiness programs instead of Dayton’s request to add more pre-kindergarten funding.

Dayton called Loon’s proposal “a poke in the eye” Tuesday. 

“We’ll negotiate something better,” he said.

The additional funding Dayton proposed would give funding to an additional 109 school districts in Minnesota that had previously applied for the funding but did not receive it.
