To the Editor:
I am supporting Bruce Bryant for State Senate. I have had the opportunity to talk with him and appreciate his commitment to education and the creation of more opportunities for students.
The issue of school funding has long been a challenging topic. The State had not met its obligation to fund education for a decade. Finally, in 2021, that changed and for the first time, education was funded at 55%. Bruce is committed to protecting and preserving this state funding for schools.
He clearly supports the people who work in our schools – teachers, custodians, kitchen, and support staff. Many of these workers must rely on assistance since they do not earn enough money at their jobs. Bruce supports raising those wages.
Whether it is K-12 or higher education, Bruce will be there for our students and our teachers!
