Kathy and Eldridge Moak presented a great program to the Cherokee Democrats at their monthly meeting on March 24. The Moaks attended the recent rally in Austin that centered on Public Education and concerns about budget cuts. Given the difficult situation the state (and nation) are in financially, we wondered what can we do?
Suggestion 1: Write, call, fax or email Representative Chuck Hopson and Senator Robert Nichols and let them know that education is your top priority and you want it to be their top priority also.
Rep. Hopson, PO Box 2910, Austin, 78768-2910; 866.233.5100, Fax 512.463.8792

Senator Nichols, PO Box 12068, Austin, 78711; 800.959.8633, Fax 512.463.1526
robert.nichols@senate.state.tx.us
Suggestion 2: Contact Hopson and Nichols and asked them to sponsor a local forum on education during the session. We are concerned/scared about what will happen to our schools and we need to hear from them with ideas on what they are doing to help repair the problems with public education.
Suggestion 3: Write to local newspapers with your concerns. Let's get our letters in the newspaper.
