Two prominent Pennsylvanians complain that the legislature dropped the ball again on charter reform.
Rob Gleason chaired the @PAGOP for 10 years prior to becoming Westmont Hilltop school board president. Democrat Eugene DePasquale was PA Auditor General for two terms. They get it.
They write:
As longtime public servants representing both major political parties and as concerned citizens who care about public education in the commonwealth, we are writing to express our great disappointment and frustration with the continued inaction by our state legislature despite broad-based, statewide, bipartisan support for charter school reform. The fact that more than 85% of locally elected school boards (434 of 500), in a state as diverse as ours, have passed formal resolutions calling for a substantive charter school law overhaul should send a clear message to policymakers — it is time for reform.
The fact that the Gulen charter school chain is comfortable using Pennsylvania as a home speaks volumes
and it has had this comfort zone for so long
With so much support for Charter law revision and so many failed attempts to get the legislature to do something, maybe activists need to draw up a petition and get enough signatures to put the issue on the ballot in the future, assuming this is possible. The extreme cyber school fleecing of the commonwealth is a zombie law from the corrupt Corbett administration so the grift with failing results has been a problem for over a decade.
It’s glaringly apparent that the majority of elected reps in the state legislature were bought-and-paid for by libertarian-fascist groups that belong to the allied treasonous criminal organization fighting to destroy public education, community-by-community, state-by-state, with the ultimate goal of ending the US’s Constitutional Republic and democracy.
