“Monroe County locals stand up for students.” October 15, 2007. NYSUT: A Union of Professionals. www.nysut.org

A coalition of NYSUT local unions is fighting a Monroe County plan to strip up to $29 million in county aid from school districts. “If this ill-conceived plan goes forward, our students will be short-changed,” said Beverly Engel, president of the Monroe County Federation of Teachers.

This is not good news for local Republican Legislators eager to win reelection. Not good news at all, because local teachers and schools might not have the money to put this issue out there along side the evening news, but you can bet NYSUT does. This issue will likely be front-and-center for the forseeable future unless the Repubs cave.

I for one am utterly heartbroken by this development. . . . /snark

TAPS for Minark
Wow that's the first thought that came to mind when I heard that Steve Minark resigned. My mind is now abuzz with a jumble of different thoughts about this long anticipated event -- the send off of the local Republican Party's # 1 pit bull (sorry to all you pit bulls out there). Yes he was as nasty as they come -- but credit where credit is due he was pretty shrewd. So call me a cynic but I don't see this as . . . More. . . || Get the Feed
