WVIK, Quad Cities NPR | By Herb Trix
Published April 11, 2018 at 3:59 AM CDT

Today's headlines:

  • the state has started sending out money from Illinois' new school funding formula,
  • as the session enters its final weeks, Iowa legislators debate tax cuts,
  • and how many cancer centers can Dubuque support?

It should be sunny today with a high near 63.
