THANK YOU to SCPTSA Co-president Samantha Fogg for presenting strong testimony on E2SSB 5263 Concerning Special Education Funding last night. SCPTSA has been consistent in our message to the Legislature for years—our state’s choice to fail to fully fund basic education based solely on disability is a civil rights issue that our legislature must address.
You can support 5263 by submitting written testimony here until 4 pm today (March 20th). Join SCPTSA and tell members of the House Appropriations Committee we are counting on them. They must maintain the Senate’s funding levels and support. We cannot let them reduce funding to the paltry amount that Appropriations had previously passed.
