We need a basic education funding system that provides enough resources, in an equitable way, to educate all students to academic standards no matter where they live. Please pass a budget that increases basic education funding by at least $410 million to help restore past funding cuts, targeted at bringing districts back to the 2010 funding level as base year, and begin implementation of the new funding formula as unanimously adopted by the Basic Education Funding Commission. Thank you, [YOUR NAME] Some legislators do not allow posts on their Facebook page unless you are "friends." However, you can comment on a post that already exists on the page. .
