My daughter is a teacher and even she agrees that you need to vote NO on 744. The extra funding will simply go to the Adminstrators. The funding will not reach the students and teachers. No more worthless new taxes!
While I agree with you on voting NO on 744. If it were to pass it would not be another not a tax. It would be another unfunded mandate. Thats the biggest problem with the bill.
Actually it goes into General fund revenue for districts the way it is written right now. the majority of a districts general fund account is usually allocated to payroll, the rest going to non bond able instructional materials, operations, maintenance and utilities, their is no pay increase mandate in the SQ. The states educators union initiated 744 when their pay raise legislation failed.
Claiming administrations are greedy and going to soak it up if it passes is BS, just like teachers their are laws regulating salaries and benefits of administration as well. Your posted argument is knee jerk reactionary bull puckey.
I am voting no because it pegs our spending levels to a benchmark level determined by other states and because their is no source of funding, unfunded mandates will destroy district finances and budgets, we should not be constitutionally required to spend money because another state spends more.
Im going to give it a big fat NO!
will vote no
already voted NO!
I agree.
I decided to vote for a guy for d-27 and after getting 4 letters a day of negative ads I think I am changing my mind and voting for his opponent.
