  • State Board of Education Update New Legislative Leaders Named
    January 23, 2017, Issue 660 State Board of Education Update Entering the Legal Fray: State Superintendent of Public Instruction Mark Johnson plans to join a court battle over a new law that moves power from the State Board of Education to him. Last month, the state board filed suit to block the legislation, House Bill 17, which was approved in a special legislative session in December, and a Superior Court judge enjoined a temporary restraining order to prevent the new law from taking effect Jan. 1. That restraining order will remain in effect until a three-judge panel decides on the legality of the law. Johnson was in court last week as the judges decided when to hold the next hearing in the case. An attorney representing Johnson told the judges they will make a formal notice that Johnson wants to be heard as part of the lawsuit. "The voters of North Carolina entrusted me with the tremendous responsibility to bring the changes we need for our teachers and our children," Johnson told WRAL News after the hearing. Andrew Erteschik, a lawyer representing the State Board of Education, said the board doesn't object to Johnson joining the lawsuit. Under the new law, Johnson would have more flexibility in managing the state's education budget, more power to dismiss senior-level employees, control of the Office of Charter Schools and authority to choose the leader of the new Achievement School District, which will oversee some of the lowest-performing schools in the state. The State Board of Education traditionally has had such authority.

  • LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY DAY House Bill 914 Support Our Direct Care Workforce Wednesday June 9, 2021
    LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY DAY House Bill 914 Support our Direct Care Workforce Wednesday June 9, 2021 A coalition of organizations across Intellectual/Developmental Disabilities, Aging and Mental Health providing residential, home and community-based health services, will be rallying at the General Assembly in support of increased wages for direct support workers. HB 914 Support Our Direct Care Workforce would increase the hourly wages of direct support staff across a variety of Medicaid services including Innovations and other home and community-based waivers, personal care services, ICFs, home health, nursing homes and other behavioral health community and residential facilities. This increased rate is intended to make sure that people who qualify for services have the direct support workforce they need. Increased rates mean providers can pay competitive wages, retain experienced Direct Support Workers, and people who need support can receive the help they need. WE NEED YOUR VOICE TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!! Reach out to the legislators that represent you but please also contact the key legislators who make the budget decisions listed below: Senator Jim Perry representing Lenoir and Wayne County Office Phone: (919) 733-5621 Email: [email protected] Senator Joyce Krawiec representing Forsyth and Davie Office Phone: (919) 733-7850 Email: [email protected] Senator Jim Burgin representing Harnett, Johnston and Lee Office Phone: (919) 733-5748 Email: [email protected] Senator Deanna Ballard representing Alleghany, Ashe, Surry, Watauga,
