11/8/24 …I am bit short on words, believe it or not – but I believe public education around the country and surely here in Ohio is set to decline exponentially in coming years…so prepare yourselves – I have been warning of this for a long time – you can see themes of this throughout this website.
this was sent from a member of your exec team – if you voted in a way that hastens this demise…shame on you…you future is in peril…this election will hasten the defunding of public education and your livelihood…
here is a lil tic toc of what might be in store – and I don’t think is is overly hyperbolic
3/19 – check out the new OEA legislative scorecard app – it gives legislators a score on how they vote on education issues –
3/12 – great page to see where OEA stands on many issues facing public Ed
12/14/23 – wanted to make you aware of a bill that is on the desk of the governor as I write – Honesty for Ohio Education is reaching out asking for educators and others to contact the governor and ask him to VETO this bill – HB 68 – this bill is about gender affirming care and allowing families and medical providers to make these decisions and not law makers…if you would like to take action – use the link above. This link will take you to the page that discusses all the bill is trying to do. What is honest education? “Every child deserves an honest high-quality education grounded in truth, facts, and diverse perspectives, regardless of race, identity, background, or zip code.”
everyone – this is just in – 6/28/23 = there is a group called the Freedom Foundation that is targeting members in the area = they are NOT about Freedom – unless you call making less money and taking away our pensions Freedom – find out more HERE
hey all – here is some helpful information for you –
OEA’s efforts to defeat Issue #1 include opportunities to canvass. OEA will be canvassing July 8th and 9th and August 5th, 6th, and 7th. …see the link just below this “Here are…”
please consider getting involved in helping to defeat Issue 1…here are ways and resources
link to the impact of Issue one – fact sheet and ways you can help – there are other links in the doc as well – PLEASE TAKE A LOOK –
NHEA personal commentary regarding the above – please, please vote NO on issue 1 – this ranks right up there with how badly Ohio is Gerrymandered in terms of taking away voices of dissent here in Ohio – it is another example of the – the initiative, referendum, and recall are all examples of ways that gave “voice” back to voters and constituents – this law sets us back in time to the early 1900s and the power political machines that left citizens voiceless – PLEASE VOTE NO ON ISSUE 1
