Action Alert School is out, but the Ohio legislature is still weakening public education. THE ISSUES: A proposed budget amendment would move $50 Million away from wraparound services and wellness programs for low-income students in public schools to expand vouchers. Another amendment would remove the HB154 wording that ends the disastrous policy of taking away local control of school districts. Call Governor DeWine (614-466-3555) and your State Senator. Click here to look up your State Senator. THE ASK: - Support local governance of schools. Keep the HB154 language in the budget.
- Use public funds to support public school children. Don’t expand vouchers.
