Aug 21st J-GOP Meeting - Speaker: Pam Benigno, Director, Education Policy Center

Dear Friends,
If you have been following the news, it seems the education establishment, along
with the Hickenlooper administration, has collected enough signatures to support
a billion dollar tax hike on the 2013 ballot. They will be saying it is "for the
children" although we know it is really for the bureaucrats.
Our speaker has proposed and created real education reforms, reforms that will lead
to the next generation of education. One that really works rather than feeding money
into the same old failed system.
Join us on August 21st to hear what the future of education can be.
Sincerely,
Dan Kopelman
J-GOP interim President
