Re: OPPOSITION TO SCHOOL CODE (SB381)

 

The PFT is deeply disappointed and concerned about the myriad failures in the current school code bill (SB381 A02135). This bill is, quite simply, shameful. 

 

It’s shameful in what it does, and it is shameful in what it does not do.

The PFT remains in opposition to SB1. 

No introduced amendment changes our position. However, there are many amendments that are worthy of consideration as standalone bills, and we have provided an overview of our positions below.
