@smtravis I've been telling everyone the pregnant pig story for the last couple days, unreal that it led to this. Also that the 60% requirement passed with less than 60% of the vote.
@Daniel_Sweeney Thank you for helping get the word out that a no vote is a cut in funding, many think they are just voting against an increase. It would be a devastating cut.
Despite the enormous cost of living in Broward County, our teachers are paid only slightly more than a state average that includes far cheaper rural areas. And even some much smaller counties (e.g. Okaloosa, Collier) pay their teachers more than we do.
Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries.
For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday.
She loved singing, dancing, & being with family.
She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊
We don't put the blame for this entirely on county commissioners or @browardsheriff, but we do want to instill in all of them a sense of urgency that this be rectified quickly to avoid further tragedies.
