Open Letter to the Pennsylvania State Senate:
The attached letter is to strongly urge that you vote NO on Senate Bill 1 as amended according to the Corbett/Piccola agreements.  The majority of the people of Pennsylvania have demonstrated that we do not want a tuition voucher plan nor do we want education privatized. The majority of Pennsylvanians have clearly asked that the legislature provide fully and equitably funded, universal public education. We want to work with you and support you to that end.
