Same! Good luck everyone. Save yourselves! But read this first. There's still one last hope. saveourschoolsky.org/2023/07/15/the…

@BamasLadyJ @JaneMayerNYer @gtconway3d @Nyer I just wrote this. Maybe it will help answer your question. Can you help us get the word out? Kentucky needs the nation's help to get Mitch's knee off all of our necks. @Dear_JCPS @SOS_KY thepeoplesagenda.net/current-campai…

House Bill 131, from @TinaForKentucky and @RepJosieRaymond, makes a ton of changes to Kentucky's charter school law including requiring ESPs to be nonprofits, 75% of a school's board must be elected, and KY can only have five charters statewide. apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/23rs/hb…

House Bill 126, from @CherlynnForKY, would roll back parts of the 2021 law that put new teachers on a different pension plan. #Kyga23 apps.legislature.ky.gov/record/23rs/hb…

@GayAdelmann @Booker4KY @atticaforky @Seasoned4u @Dear_JCPS @AllHistoryMttrs @J4J_USA @RepAOC @CoriBush #KeepGoing!

As of now it’s still true. Vote for Dems with a PROVEN track record of pushing back against privatizers!!!! Vote @Booker4KY @atticaforky @Seasoned4u @sarah4KY and Karl Price! #StopChartersInKY @SOS_KY

@LtGovColeman There should be consequences for those who deliberately told lies and spread misinformation in order to get the bill passed in the first place. ESPECIALLY since it was UNCONSTITUTIONAL and they were warned it would lose in court. Waste of time, tax dollars and lost opportunities.

HB563 was unanimously struck down by the KY Supreme Court, leaving no doubt that public dollars should stay in our public schools. Let’s work together to put kids first, support our teachers and ensure our schools have the resources they need to do what we’ve asked them to do.

@AppalachiaIsGr8 @jess_m_clark Taking back local control will produce much better outcomes than a vindictive state legislature ruling from an ivory tower ever could.

This is not a great week for advocates of school privatization in Kentucky. Today the KYSC struck down the state's Education Opportunity Accounts program, which would have sent would-be tax dollars to fund private school tuition....

@jess_m_clark But it's a GREAT WEEK for STUDENTS, PARENTS/GUARDIANS, TEACHERS, STAFF, TAXPAYERS, and fans, supporters and benefactors of PUBLIC SCHOOLS! #StopVouchersInKY #StopChartersInKY

@GayAdelmann BREAKING NEWS OUT OF KY! @DianeRavitch @marla_kilfoyle @deutsch29blog @StevenSinger3 @valeriestrauss @drloisweiner @pastors4txkids @Destroy_ALEC @YohuruWilliams @brothajitu @HuffPostEdu @ACLUofKY @FairnessCamp @LouisvilleSURJ @kftc @JCKFTC @JessedHagopian @jeffbcdm @NElovesPS

SOMEONE PINCH ME! Am I reading this right? The League of Women Voters is reporting that the Voucher law has been struck down by KY Supreme Court as Unconstitutional! Hopefully charters are next! #StopVouchersInKY #StopChartersInKY

@GayAdelmann @AmyJeanTyler Unanimous decision!

All 7 members of the KY Supreme Court ruled that a Kentucky school choice program (Education Opportunity Account Act) is unconstitutional. Outgoing KYSC Justice Lisabeth Hughes wrote the opinion affirming an order from Franklin Circuit Judge Phillip Shepherd. ^AH

A victory for our students, public schools, and Kentucky taxpayers.

Kentucky Supreme Court to @kyoag: "We respectfully decline to construe the Constitution in a way that would avoid its plain meaning." opinions.kycourts.net/sc/2021-SC-051…

And Monday, the NKU Board of Regents declined to play the leading role in opening the charter school mandated by lawmakers for northern Kentucky. lpm.org/news/2022-12-1…

Yesterday, the Jefferson Co. Board of Ed signaled its willingness to participate in a potential lawsuit challenging the new charter school funding law: lpm.org/news/2022-12-1…

@TeachLegalFund @BrentMcKim @jess_m_clark @BGPolitics @KYEducators @GayAdelmann @LtGovColeman @fklonsky @DianeRavitch @GovAndyBeshear #McKimbecile is a much better nickname than the ones I came up with. However, yours implies his actions are unintentional. I think he, and the entire #McKKKonnell clan, are more calculating than you give them credit for. Take this dejavu from #KYGA19. #StopVouchersInKY #StopHB563

Awww hell no. #StopVouchersInKY #StopVulturesInKY #StopHB563 #StopTheGrift "But a proposed committee substitute of the bill, obtained by The Courier Journal, significantly alters the legislation to include "education opportunity accounts." courier-journal.com/story/news/pol…

@LouSchoolBeat @Alvarado4Senate Call the legislative hotline at 800-372-7181 and tell them to leave a message for ALL Legislators to vote NO on #HB350. #StopVouchersInKY #WorseThanCharters #FullyFundED!
