Debate on the Senate's 2.25% SSA proposal is on the schedule for this afternoon. If the Iowa Senate can propose $300 million in corporate tax breaks, ask your state senator to make that same investment in public schools with 5% SSA. Contact your senator: isea.org/lobby

We need your advocacy! The governor’s ed omnibus bill includes school vouchers and will be discussed in subcommittee Feb. 2. Contact your legislator and tell them #NoVouchersIA.
Plan to caucus! You are welcome to register to vote when you arrive to caucus, but you can speed up the process by registering in advance! Go to mymvd.iowadot.gov/Account/Lo… to register or update your address. #IAcaucus
After the election in Iowa House District 55, we worry that our absentee ballot was received and counted. Don't be disenfranchised. Check your status here-sos.iowa.gov/elections/absen… #SD30
When schools can no longer afford necessities like vision, hearing, and lead screening, @IASB_Iowa should be lobbying for the funding, not supporting a bill that would eliminate the requirement. I hope that the senator who we will elect in SD 30 will feel as I do. #SSB1190
