[verbatim from Coalition for Children and Public Education]: Please try one more time to effect some positive outcome for education funding through phone calls. I know you've called already, but please call again today. WE DO NOT WANT TO GO TO SPECIAL SESSION. The outcome of a special session will almost surely be worse than that of a regular session. Please call 5 to 10 people and ask that they each call 4 or 5 people to spread the word that calls need to go out today. Be sure you, all those you call, and all those they call phone your Senator, the LT. Governor and Sen. Little. If your senator is among the 30 who voted against the Bryan Amendment, please make sure to call him or her. Those 30 senators and their phone numbers are listed below.
Tell them: 1. NO SPECIAL SESSION, 2. Support the House position on MAEP
funding, & 3. Do it today!
Also, some legislators are asking superintendents in "active" districts to "call the dogs off" (stop the phone calls). This means the legislators are feeling the pressure. Constituents SHOULD communicate their desires to their legislators. You might consider making a phone call to your superintendent and letting him or her know you support the calls to legislators.
