in case any NJ legislators are even THINKING about a school voucher program

[Ahmed Shehata, MBA,MPA @AhmedShehata164]

I’m deeply honored to be confirmed by the NJ state senate to serve on the state board of education. Thank you for the opportunity to contribute to the future of our students. Grateful for the support of @GovMurphy , @SenPresScutari , Sen Bramnick & Cryan, and Chairman Stack.

[Education Law Center @EdLawCenter]

Disappointed Governor and Legislature chose to ignore their constitutional obligation to fund the school construction program, leaving 1000s of students in unhealthy and obsolete buildings. Continued inaction= Additional Court intervention.

[Education Law Center @EdLawCenter]

Left out of NJ FY25 State Budget: funding for the SDA and the upcoming Educational Adequacy Report. To Do list for Legislators and Governor: update the SFRA formula and provide funding for school construction program.

[Education Law Center @EdLawCenter]

NJ Senate and Assembly passed FY25 State Budget including full funding of SFRA school funding formula as proposed by Gov. Murphy. Great start with more work to do. #fullfunding #SFRAupdate

[OCOSNJ @OCOSNJ]

We are calling for $500 million for the SDA in the FY25 NJ state budget to ensure continued work on current projects and the ability to begin new projects #FundTheSDA #FundSchoolConstructionNJ

[OCOSNJ @OCOSNJ]

When we fight, we win! Thanks to the many organizations that worked together to oppose tax credit private school vouchers in NJ and to Sen. Gopal for withdrawing the voucher bill. https://t.co/ne3JpfT5pV

[OCOSNJ @OCOSNJ]

OC/OS calls on the NJ Legislature and Governor to fund a comprehensive Educational Adequacy Report, a study of Local Fair Share, and a Buildings Conditions and Assessment Survey in the FY25 State Budget.
