Not true, Laurie. Our elected legislature will implement & decide on spending, not some imaginary 'uber leftist.' The amendment just guarantees that additional key services proven to bolster academic success will be included.

Another thing Laurie Lee says in this screed against the that isn't true: The amendment doesn't affect LEARNS teacher salary provisions, as it doesn't repeal LEARNS. Indeed, many educators are signing up to help .

Guess who 'liked' this partisan post from the governor's office - a TV reporter who covers the Capitol for @KARKNews. (I'd note that when I pointed out a similar unfortunate 'like' several weeks ago, I was assured that it had been done by mistake.)
