Friend,
Last week, I hosted my hearing for the Basic Education Funding Commission (BEFC) on how Pennsylvania’s legislators can uphold our constitutional obligation to fairly and fully fund our public education system.
I asked you to share your thoughts, and one response in particular caught my eye:
|
“I attended public schools; I taught in public schools; my children attended public schools; and my grandchildren attend public schools. Public monies should go towards public schools, not voucher programs that take funding away from public schools and would hurt the community.”
|
Public school funding doesn’t just impact our students — it impacts our entire community.
I’m fighting to ensure our public dollars stay in public schools so every Pennsylvanian can achieve a high quality education and an affordable cost of living. If you oppose Republicans’ school vouchers, please make a contribution of any amount so we can keep these programs out of Pennsylvania’s public schools »
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.
Regardless of whether you have a student or not, this is an issue that directly affects you and your taxes. I hope I can continue counting on your support as I move this fight forward.
— Lindsey Williams
