YOUR CHANCE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE

We just received word from our GR person, Fran Pfeffer, that Jim Beach is very interested in hearing how our members feel about the voucher bill. He indicated that he could be persuaded if he hears from enough NJEA members. Presidents are encouraged to utilize their local communications system and ask each of your members to contact Senator Beach. His contact information is below. We expect that the vote will be taken tomorrow.

Tell him:

This voucher scheme would drain up to a billion tax dollars from the state at a time when we are cutting education funding and other critical programs.

• Please oppose S-1872/A-2810.
• No more bailouts. We need to focus our resources on highly accountable public schools, not send money to subsidize struggling private schools with no meaningful accountability.
• Public education is our future - we should be investing in it, not destroying it.
