Thursday, May 3rd, 

The House Finance Committee voted 14-12 to send SB 193 for interim study. However the full House vote this week could still overrule this recommendation. We need to defeat this bill. (Read letter from Doug Ley, AFT-NH President, for details.)

Please contact your state representative to emphasize – we need a NO vote on SB 193. If you have any connection to Representatives in other districts, please contact them to ask for a NO vote on this bill.

Thank you.  Margaret Campbell, Chair, Education Action Group
