The Idaho Press-Tribune reports that Representatives voted to reverse scheduled cuts to teacher salaries that had been part of last year’s “Students Come First” education overhaul.

Thursday’s vote was 59-9, with only Democrats opposing the package that’s a critical part of lawmakers’ plan to adjourn by Thursday evening or Friday.

Last year, legislators cut $35 million over five years from teacher salaries, redirecting cash to education reforms including merit pay and new technology.
