Letter to the editor: Vote Wright for strong public schools

From Phil Fransen

To the editor:

95.24%. This is the percentage that Todd Novak has voted with Robin Vos and he calls himself an independent. He voted against Mr. Vos when it didn't matter and they probably didn't care. We know what happens to a true independent such as Dale Schultz. They find someone like Howard Marklein, a follower of Scott Walker and force you into a primary because you don't toe the line. I would think there are democrat legislators that would tell Todd Novak I know Dale Schultz, I served with Dale Schultz and sir you are no Dale Schultz.

So what are Todd Novak's accomplishments. He has helped to put in place a system that Townships in Wisconsin don't have the funds to repair their roads. He has been called the Poster Child of the Voucher School Movement funded with money from out of state billionaires to destroy our good public schools for profit. This takes our tax money from Public Schools and sends it to private religious schools. Our public schools are forced to go to referendum to just maintain basic services.

You can go to Jeff Wright for Wisconsin to look at the school aid changes. Click on learn more, Education Funding, LFB Memo Link, for General School Aid Changes for all schools in the state of Wisconsin. There are schools that have lost over 50% of state aid. What do they do?

They need to run their busses, heat their buildings, so do they drop opportunities for students?

If you believe in strong public schools vote for Jeff Wright. If you don't care about the future Todd Novak is your choice.
