VOUCHERS: JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT IT WAS SAFE TO GO BACK IN THE WATER………..

Thank you for your help thus far; it has been invaluable.

However, we need your calls again this morning.

House and Senate Republican leaders met with the administration last night and will take an 11^th hour shot at vouchers today before the legislature leaves town for the summer, amending HB 1330 in the Senate Ed Committee.

PLEASE CALL YOUR STATE SENATOR THIS MORNING TO VOICE YOUR OPPOSITION TO THIS LAST MINUTE ATTEMPT TO MOVE VOUCHERS.

Senate contact info here

PLEASE ALSO CALL YOUR STATE REPRESENTATIVE THIS MORNING AND ASK THEM TO TELL THEIR LEADERS NOT TO BRING VOUCHERS TO THE FLOOR.

House contact info here

PLEASE FORWARD THIS ALERT TO YOUR BOARDS AND ANY OTHER PUBLIC EDUCATION STAKEHOLDERS ASAP.

WE WILL FORWARD ADDITIONAL INFO AS IT BECOMES AVAILABLE.
