SCHOOL CHOICE: Representative, please vote no

| February 16, 2025 1:00 AM

I am urging the Idaho House to vote NO to HB93. Idaho’s public schools are not fully funded; can we please fund our existing public schools first before considering vouchers or a tax credit?

As a mother of seven, I have come to deeply appreciate our teachers, staff, students and parents at the Lakeland Joint School District. In March 2023, after Lakeland’s first levy failure, I founded “Friends of Lakeland Schools” and along with countless other volunteers worked tirelessly campaigning for our desperately needed levy, which has not increased in amount asked since 2019 and is 25% of our district’s budget. It thankfully passed in May 2023. However, it failed again in the November 2024 election, after yet another depleting campaign.
