The powerful who attack public education (and work to starve it) (or privatize it) are active at the federal and state levels. They control many elections. So that all may know, I have made a list of who they are:
Betsy DeVos The Koch Brothers Dick Armey Teri Adams Patrick Byrne The Walton Family Joel Greenberg Jeffrey Yass The Obendorf Family
Fronts for these individuals have been formed across the country: Children's Education Council Believe in Louisiana All Children Matter Iowa Advocates for Chose in Education Alliance for School Choice Parents for School Choice REACH Alliance Partners for Educational Freedom BOAST Alliance Texans for School Choice
American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) (added by Julie Underwood) We should all remember the admonitions of a wise Italian sage (Venanzio Luigi Manna) "If one wishes to control the destiny of nations, one must first control the education of the young!" |
Right on DON !
