Dear John,
As someone who cares deeply about public education issues, we wanted to give you a “heads-up” that next week (September 16) the Florida House and Senate return to Tallahassee to meet in pre-session committees.
FEA has many resources available to help you stay connected and informed about the policy proposals that will be debated during committee weeks and the legislative session. Here’s a few of the things you may wish to know about:
- During education committee meetings, FEA live tweets the happenings – and often we call out legislators who are a little low on facts and high on hyperbole. And when they say or do something right, we make sure you know that, too. You can follow us on Twitter.
- We also post the Twitter thread on Facebook along with other related information and action alerts.
- If you are not already receiving for Action Alert texts, just text feaactivist to 31996 to sign up- we want to let legislators know that FEA members are keeping an eye on their votes on bills important to educators during session.
- Get ready for the policy debate by reading FEA’s 5 part series called Bad Policy and Low Pay: How Florida is Undermining Student Success - and follow the Frontline Blog for more in-depth coverage of the top education issues being disused during the legislative session.
- If you would rather get your legislative session news via email, sign up for The FEA Frontline Report. The Frontline Report is delivered at the end of each pre-session committee week and weekly during session.
- If you plan to come to Tallahassee during the legislative session – please let the Public Policy Department know by emailing [email protected]. Whether you are a member of FEA or a public education activist, Tina can help you navigate the capitol complex and the legislative process.
Thank you for being a supporter of our public school students. We’re serious about doing what works for our students and making sure our legislators provide the resources our students need to succeed – and we need your help to make sure our students’ best interests are at the center of every decision made in Tallahassee.
