To: Doug Ducey, Arizona Treasurer
Make the Prop 204 tax increase permanent!
We, the undersigned, support the permanent extension of the one-cent sales tax to fund education. We would rather pay now than pay later.
Why is this important?
Education is not just a benefit for the wealthy, or a blunt instrument powered by "special interests", it's an investment by, and for, the growth of the larger society. The legislature has already shown a willingness to divert foreclosure-assistance money from its intended purpose, and Arizona's underfunded schools can't afford more of the same. Public education made my life possible...will it be there for tomorrow's kids?
