Ohio's Teachers

WeareOhio has released a new ad opposing Issue 2:



Did you see all the restrictions that SB 5 has against teachers?  Let me refresh the information for you.......

ISSUE 2 Restricts rights to collective bargaining for:
SMALLER CLASS SIZES
Source: Senate Bill 5; p 230, Section 4117.08 (C)
and p 232, Section 4117.081 (A)(B)



ISSUE 2 Restricts rights to collective bargaining for:

UP-TO-DATE TEXT BOOKS
Source: Senate Bill 5; p 230, Section 4117.08 (C)
and p 232, Section 4117.081 (A)(B)


ISSUE 2 Restricts rights to collective bargaining for:
SCHOOL SAFETY ISSUES
Source: Senate Bill 5; p 230, Section 4117.08 (C)
and p 232, Section 4117.081 (A)(B)


ISSUE 2
MORE STANDARDIZED TESTING
Source: Senate Bill 5; p 154-157, Section 3317.13 (B) (C) 
and less time for classroom learning.

Issue 2 gives politicians the right to completely gut the budget for public education in Ohio. This destruction of public education is a goal of some powerful Republicans. If Issue 2 stands, you can expect crowded classrooms, tens of thousands of teachers fired, old and out of date books and equipment in schools, an increase of violence due to a lack of safety officers, and tests, tests, tests, and more tests.

Stop this unnecessary and unfair law.

Vote NO on Issue 2.
