$26 billion - oh well....
Another payoff for the Dem party base.
No let’s see if the Republicans have the ‘cojones’ to start making a very big deal out of this.
Support the Union Label
Pray for America
Our state VOTED to raise sales taxes temporarily to halt teacher layoffs and/or other education cuts. Why couldn’t other states do the same?
Were the photo-op teachers laid-off teachers? Where are these laid off teachers?
The No Criminally Underfunded Union Pension Left Behind Act of 2010.
The feds paying for more teachers the local districts can’t afford on their own. I hope Christie turns down the money as it will only equal more local taxes for us long-term.
Yeah - but this will make them BETTER teachers....
no0bama and the DIMs give money to the teachers. The teachers give much of it back to the DIMs in campaign money support. Quite a scam. Quite an illegal thing to do.
I’m confused by this. I’m pretty sure every single district in CA laid off teachers by increasing class sizes this fall.
So what now? School starts in 2 weeks. How is this money exactly divided up? Do fiscally responsible districts get any money, or just the ones who wasted money and overspent during the “good years” and didn’t keep any reserve?
Is there time for these fired and now re-hired teachers to get their classrooms ready? For the districts to re-assign all the students within the schools?
I’m mystified by the how this will all play out in practicality. . .somehow it all seems shady. . .

Throw 'em all out.
The Obama cult - It's hard to compete with a party that gives away the treasury.
I assume there will be a bill to save Plumbers, IT professionals, Purchasing Managers, and the like? (/sarc)

“Temporarily...”
excuse me a moment...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
*gasp* *breath*
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
It looks like the money is actually going to the retired teachers so they can keep getting their big fat pensions?
God help us all. . .I can’t believe DC rushed back to pass this; I have 4 kids in public school but this all seems so pathetic and wrong to me. . .
Teenage Mutant Ninja Marxist at it again. Pre-paid votes.
Yes They Scam!
Do you think?
