While the agreed-upon #PABudget included $100M in new #LevelUp funds, PA's most underfunded school districts are still waiting for the money to be released. Will @SenatorArgall stand up for #LevelUp?

Thank you, PA House Democrats for protecting our public school system tonight! We’re with you in the long fight to make public schools better for all students.
Students at high need schools like Donegan or Marvine don’t need a “lifeline.” What they need is to be respected by an equitable system of public school funding that doesn’t reduce them to a PSSA score. @EdVotersPA@BethlehemAreaSD
Literally thousands of PA children suffer the lifetime impact of lead paint poisoning, but the PA Senate passed their FY24 #PABudget with NO funds for lead paint remediation. It's time we stop ignoring the problem and start investing! #PALeadFree @RepDonnaBullock @Joanna4PA
Voucher programs would radically alter PA’s education landscape, sending millions of state dollars to institutions not accountable to the public. This is not something to compromise on. #stopvouchers#PABudget
We can't let a few politicians and special interests in Harrisburg extort $100M from nearly 1.6M public school kids because their donors want it. The PA GOP doesn't care about students they left behind for 30+ years. They want your tax dollars funding for-profit private schools.
🚨🚨🚨 Take Action Now! PA Senate passes budget with NO funding to address early learning workforce shortage.

The idea that we have failing schools is absolutely absurd. We have a failure in our state government that has chosen to disinvest in these “failing schools.”

I ❤️ my students like they were my own children. If I thought vouchers would help them, I’d support them, even if it meant some of my students going to other schools. But the research shows voucher do NOT improve student outcomes. - Fatim Byrd, HS teacher & @TeachPlusPA Fellow
A quick scan and I found a few others…I wonder how many total if we tallied all 500 school districts…🤔🤔🤔@GovernorShapiro you’re gna have many many unhappy constituents
“We waited until the last-minute hoping that we’d have an answer from the state as to what our subsidy would be, but we don’t have that,” said John Harkins, vice president of the Erie School Board. #FundPublicSchools#NoVouchers#DeVosPlan4PA
