Governor Jerry Brown proposes to reform California's school finances, through a simple and transparent formula that funds similar students similarly, and links funding to the cost of educating students. The proposal will increase districts’ ability to design programs that best meet the needs of their students, as well as refocus the state’s role on monitoring student performance and intervening when districts show signs of struggling. The proposal has been praised by both the Public Policy Institute of California (PPIC), and California's nonpartisan Legislative Analyst's Office. This petition will let your legislator know you support such significant, necessary, and immediate improvements to California's school funding system.

Dear Parents, NYC public schools are in dire need of more government funding. Instead, we are seeing systematic cuts year after year. This means greater class size and less classroom resources. This puts enrichment subjects--dance, music, art, science, library--at risk. --Our children deserve better! Help us send a message to elected officials to stop school budgets cuts! --Tell City Hall and the education chancellor that we must INVEST in our kids' future! Additional budget cuts are not sustainable without sacrificing the quality of education. --Join our effort so kids will not pay the price! Let's stand together to make a difference!

Public education is suffering due to a lack of books, curriculum being cut, such as, physical education, and the arts, and a lack of courses to ensure that all students have access to a good education that will allow them to go to a college or university upon completion of high school. Our children's education should be our top priority, and the budget should reflect that we are a state that cares about our students. I remember when your father was in office as governor and he set education as a high priority. California was first in the nation at that time leading every other state when it came to education. If you follow in your father's footsteps California can lead the nation in education of its students again.
