Arizona Democrats put forth
an education funding plan that replenishes some of the resources that have been
slashed from schools since 2009 without
raiding the voter approved State Land Trust Fund, or the First Things First
Fund.
Our plan:
- Supports a long-term investment and the foundation for Arizona’s future economic success
- Provides nearly $4 billion for public education during the first 10 years and protects funding levels after that
- Does not rob future generations by harming the principal of the state land trust fund
- Does not raise taxes and can be implemented immediately
This plan also complies with the
court order on which Republican leaders continue to drag their feet. Rather than
listen to the will of voters and fund children’s education they’ve been playing
political games to intimidate education advocates.
As long as I continue to represent
Arizona families I will make sure there are alternatives to Republican
leaderships’ draconian education policies. Please support us by forwarding this
