vincent hughes held a hearing on that tax and he is democratic chair of the senate appropriations committee and he joins us this morning. >> good morning. >> can you give us an update on the hearing and where things stan right now. >> what we wanted to do with the hearing, we had the mayor, a great parent of masterman and david hardy the head of the boys charter school just to tell us what happened last year with the level of fund ago this we had and what a loss of fund would go mean for this year. we were barely an ad quitely funded and i think that might be even pushing the envelope with our schools, almost 40 kids in the classroom, not enough nursing, not enough counselors, in the enough really anything going on in our schools. if we don't get extra dollars, it will be far less than that. i am in full agreement with doctor hite how do you consider opening up schools in an environment like that. >> how did it get to this point. >> the philadelphia school district has been behind for

decades in terms of funding, like mostly income school district, philadelphia school district 80 percent of the kids are below federal movement poverty level. real difficult challenge. suburban districts around philadelphia, $20,000 a kid, philadelphia school district, $13,000 a child. you really cannot do something adequately with the challenging that the kids bring to the table. we need something dramatic to happen. the cigarette tax, which is just on people who buy cigarettes inside the city of philadelphia, just on those folks will drive an extra 83 million-dollar toward educational system and that just gets us back to where we were last year which again many folks say is not even good enough. >> you have represented district seven for 20 years now have you seen a crisis like this before. >> not as intense as this. it has never got then bad. it has been over a billion dollars of cuts in education in the last four years unfortunately under this

governor. school district of philadelphia has felt a brunt of that. over 400 million-dollar of that has happened right inside the school district. we don't fund education appropriately. you don't have enough dollars going in the system. we're running a summer reading program right now, 300 kids, because for last couple weeks they have been coming to my school reading, right. but, they are excited bit. they are enthusiastic about it. but we are seeing challenging these kids are bringing. we are not servicing the way they deserve to be served. >> you mentioned it will take a dramatic resolution, how dramatic what do you see. >> i am fearful, i am fearful that the house won't take the action necessary before september to get us back for the cigarette tax. that puts district in jeopardy. it really does. what the governor did was advance fund, dollars already committed. so that means there is a hole

somewhere in the district budget, maybe december, january, something along that line and again that is not fair to our kids. that is not what we should be preparing. >> it was bitter sweet yesterday then. >> i'm in the sure there was much sweet in that bitter sweet. >> i hear you. >> again these are our children. all businesses say if they don't have have a strong educated work force they are not going to survive. new business relocating to philadelphia don't ask about the tax structure they ask the quality of the education being provided to their children. >> do you see cigarette tax a permanent solution or temporary one. >> it is part of what needs to be a long term solution. local dollars stepping up but the state has got to do more. we have to readjust education formula, drive more dollars towards philadelphia kids and all children across the the state of pennsylvania get fair and adequate. it is just not fair. these kids don't deserve this. >> keep everybody updated. >> thanks very much.

>> appreciate it. >> our time is now 6:40. >> we have some breaking news this just came in a couple years ago, edward snowden has been granted permission to stay in russia, for three more years. now snowden was granted a one year temporary asylum in russia but that expired august 1st. thirty-one year-old is whistle blower behind the largest intelligence leak in the history of the national security agency. we will be right back with an update on the breaking news also the amber alert we have been telelling but in delaware county, also traffic and
