@tj_meadows @rockwoolna This is total nonsense and not based in reality. Doesn’t stop them from pedaling it, though. I’m sure they appreciate you passing it along as fact. Fact is people don’t want their kids poisoned and their home values knocked down 15%.
If your car breaks down, you pay to repair it. What you don’t do is swear off car ownership as a socialist evil and then give your gas money to rich people because you think they will give you a ride. Same logic explains why charter schools are bad for WV. #55strong
You know what’s awesome? Fighting for what’s right. You know what’s not awesome? Shilling for outside interests and selling out kids and families. #55United#55strong#wvteachers
I want to take this opportunity to remind everyone that Patricia Rucker isn’t actually from Jefferson County. She isn’t even from West Virginia. #55strong#kooks
Imagine if WV GOP approached roads like that are presenting education: in order to fix the roads, we need to take money away from repairs and give that money to people to build new special roads that we won’t directly oversee and will have much less regulation. Problem solved!
Considering the scale in wv, progress would be easy to see in education. The key? Way more money, more schools, focused technology programs and an incentive program to bring in the best young teachers from around the country. It’s that simple. All comes down to money.
Being against kooky Patricia Rucker is not being against progress, despite what some might say. Real progress doesn’t siphon money away from pubic schools to pad the coffers of religious schools and antivaxxers.
You know how you get rid of these terrible, anti-student, anti-teacher changes being pushed by kook Patricia Rucker? Demand the bill be withdrawn. And if it’s not? Stirike the next day. Organize and don’t relent until her ideas are off the table.
