Campaign Unavailable We're sorry, this alert is no longer available. If you would like to learn more about ways you can take action, please visit Ohio Education Association.The short explanation of this alert was: The Senate's version of House Bill 1 is a huge step backwards for public education and a lack of vision for job creation in Ohio.
Public education — from Kindergarten through higher education — can help Ohio develop more highly skilled employees that are key to attracting the businesses and careers emerging today.
But the Ohio Senate has thrown out nearly every meaningful reform of the Strickland Plan for Public Education, as passed by the House, including all-day Kindergarten, better technology resources for schools and any recognition for the new skills our students need in order to be successful.
Now a House-Senate Conference Committee must address the gulf between the Strickland Plan, which looks toward the future, and the Senate version of the state budget, which lacks a vision for education and the economy. But you can still make a difference.
Action needed: Contact your State Senator today and urge him/her to pass the Strickland Plan for Public Education. If you would like to view details on this alert, please visit here. |
