An overwhelming response, and a strong next step

We all know the next big opportunity for meaningful education reform will take place in the U.S. Congress, when our legislators in Washington sit down to write the federal law to replace “No Child Left Behind.” 

Thanks to you, we’re off to a great start in our campaign to get community-minded reformers involved in the process. We launched a petition asking Congress to take public input on education reform, and we’ve nearly reached our goal of having a signature from every state in America.  Last week, hundreds of education voters from all across the country wrote to their legislators, asking that Congress take the time to collect public input before getting to work.

Now’s the time to turn up the heat.  Please help us keep the pressure on Congress by making a financial contribution today!

In the coming weeks, we’ll be delivering the Education Voters petition to the chairmen of the House and Senate education committees.  We’ll be meeting with people on Capitol Hill who specialize in writing and analyzing education laws.

And every step of the way, we’ll keep telling people in Washington what you have to say.

As members of Education Voters, you have a voice in Washington. And as parents, teachers, students, and activists, you have real expertise and valuable experience that needs to be seen and heard by our elected leaders.

Your contribution will help us keep the pressure on Congress to do the right thing, and to get more people involved in the process of reforming our schools.

Education Voters will keep fighting to put our kids’ interests at the forefront of education policy.  With the support of dedicated activists like you, we are making 2010 the year of education.
