Campaign for Fiscal Equity v. State of New York

Campaign for Fiscal Equity v. State of New York was a legal case where New York public school students argued that the state's funding system was unfair and deprived them of a sound basic education. The court ruled that the state had a constitutional obligation to provide adequate funding to ensure educational equity across districts. This decision led to increased state investment in public education, aiming to reduce disparities between wealthy and less wealthy school districts and improve overall educational quality for all students.
