This morning, CTA representatives, Senate President Pro Tempore Darrell Steinberg (D-Sacramento), Assembly Majority Leader Kevin Deleon (D-Los Angeles), and school supporters told reporters at a news conference on the Capitol steps that they are urging Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger to sign a measure that would protect $402 million in funding for the Quality Education Investment Act (QEIA) and district revenue limit appropriations. SCTA President Linda Tuttle spoke about schools in Sacramento that have seen skyrocketing student performance as a result of the tools the QEIA funding helps provide.
