Call your legislators tomorrow and tell them to vote no on the #ACCESSBill Arkansas public schools can take another hit from sweeping bills that seek to undermine our communities.

Wait. What? Huckafuck’s education guru was caught up in a bidding scandal in Florida before coming to Arkansas.
And now Arkansas has a voucher vendor bidding scandal.
Weird.
As we ponder @ArkansasEd giving a $15M contract to a vendor whose dubious qualifications were readily apparent, let us remember that Jacob Oliva was caught up in a bid-rigging scandal in FL before Gov. Sanders inflicted him on #Arkansas.

More on #Vouchergate: Student First’s performance was an epic disaster since day one. For instance, 8 hours after SF launched its online system where parents could buy school-related products, Amazon was taken offline. Worse yet, it never returned. (In NH, Amazon was the 1/2
This is an unfunded mandate made by Sarah’s #VoucherScam Go watch the testimony of multiple veteran educators who said they didn’t want the LEARNS Act to pass. They knew the harm it would cause.

Arkansans and their government stand at odds arktimes.com/arkansas-blog/2…
While it is NOT our petition, we are watching the abortion petition closely. We want people to always have the opportunity to vote and leave government out of it. Vote yall!! It’s important!! Sign petitions!! It’s important!
Hey, get out and sign those petitions this weekend so the PEOPLE can vote on important issues!!! Don’t let the #arleg tell you your voice doesn’t matter. We came up a couple hundred signatures short on the veto amendment. Don’t miss your chance now! #RegnatPopulusYall
Last year when CAPES came together, we were collecting signatures for the veto referendum to stop LEARNS so it could be thoroughly debated and studied. 1/ 🧵

CAPES FULLY SUPPORTS all Arkansans in their constitutional right to petition the government. This is not okay. When lawyers are getting arrested at legal conferences for not soliciting but collecting signatures, we know we are in trouble. 4/
Don’t let them bully you. Don’t let them play on your fears. Get out to sign these petitions and send lawmakers a CLEAR MESSAGE. #regnatpopulus 5/5
More coverage on the lawsuit against the unconstitutional vouchers in #Arkansas
kark.com/news/education/new-…
The #LEARNS #VoucherScam is unconstitutional. Public dollars belong in public schools.
A lawsuit filed Friday directly challenges the school voucher program created by Arkansas LEARNS, saying it “represents a radical and unconstitutional departure from a public school system that has endured since the establishment of the state."
