Teacher Says Students are the Reason Why Legislators Should Change Their Tune

A teacher at Mountlake Terrace High School has begun his own protest against Washington state's destructive budget cuts to education.  It is making waves on the website and the Facebook page.  And back home, as more students and teachers get involved in the divisive politics of Texas, surely Austin must soon understand that everyone who is listening is also a voter.

There are about 160 reasons why I urge you to demand from your legislators that they immediately stop a horrific injustice that they’re about to inflict on public education and the kids of our state. Those 160 reasons are the students I see in my classroom every day at Mountlake Terrace High School.

But those are my 160 reasons. In fact, there are more than one million reasons — each and every one of the students across our state. So, I invite you to share your reasons for fighting for our public schools.
