Senate passes school finance amendment AUSTIN (AP) — The Texas Sen ate passed a proposed constitutional amendment Tuesday that would al low the state to take local property tax revenue from wealthy school dis tricts and spend it in poor ones. A school finance reform bill de tailing how the money would be re distributed was not immediately con sidered by the Senate. The sponsor. Sen. Carl Parker, said he planned to bring it up Wednesday. Senators also passed a second pro- posed constitutional amendment to eliminate the requirement that some state money be sent to Texas school districts on a per-pupil basis, regard less of their wealth. That money could be redistri buted within the system, taking $44 million away from the 75 wealthiest districts in 1992. Both proposed constitutional amendments, passed 22-6, are in re sponse to a Texas Supreme Court order to equitably fund poor school districts.
