Use the budget surplus to restore money to K-12 education. It is time to stop destroying our public schools in order to create profits in the private sector.
Why is this important?
The Michigan Legislature has slashed school funding in order to give 1.8 Billion dollars worth of tax cuts to corporations. Not one job has been created, but thousands have been lost. With the realization of 285 million dollars in unexpected revenue, it is time for the Legislature to restore K-12 school funding, and to stop attacking the labor rights of public sector employees.
