The students of Michigan need action now, but don't take our word for it. Here's what three Superintendents said about Michigan's budget crisis:
>>> "[T]he reality [is] that every single school administrator in Michigan is currently being forced into [making budget decisions based off guesswork] because our state Legislature hasn't done their constitutionally mandated job to pass a budget for our K-12 schools on time." -- Michigan Advance, 8/31/2019
So far, the only plan we've seen from Republicans cuts millions from the governor's education budget. We can't let that happen.
We need 3,000 people to send a message to the Republican Legislature: Give students and educators the resources they need and pass a budget TODAY! >>> [link removed]
The governor's budget would make a historic investment in education. Here's what four Superintendents said about Gretchen's proposal:
>>> "The governor's budget is one that reflects a deep understanding of the unique needs of schools and students across Michigan and makes significant and historic strides toward addressing them." -- Detroit Free Press, 3/10/2019
We need a groundswell of support to show the GOP legislature that our budget is the right path forward.
