The California Teachers Association yesterday passed a resolution condemning Gov. Schwarzenegger’s proposed $4.8 billion cuts in California’s education.
“Our students didn’t create this budget crisis and their education shouldn’t be ransomed to solve it with proposals that don’t just mortgage their academic futures, but amount to a foreclosure of hope for generations of families,” the CTA said.
We agree.
Ever since the governor announced the cuts, Right To Learn has encouraged students throughout California to get involved by e-mailing Gov. Schwarzenegger and telling him of how the cuts would affect their schools.
The CTA also released a series of documents helping to clearly explain the cuts, along with a radio advertisement that will begin airing this week. Check out the first issue of CTA’s “Budget Watch” newsletter or their “Key Points on the Budget,” available in English and Spanish.
Spread the word. Contact the governor. Fight for our Right To Learn.
