Which group represents more parents? Community members? Teachers?
If the Yes group mostly represents ed reformers and business, then who is really pushing this?
George Griffin, a respect local businessman and former chair of the Alliance for Education board, said at the 37th Dems "who wrote this initiative?" He questioned if it I-1240 was truly being put out there to help at-risk kids and why no one in his community was asked what they wanted or asked to help write it. Eric Pettigrew, the rep from the 37th, sat mute at the other end of the table.
