IACS Newsletter – February 2014
ESA Legislation Introduced In The Senate!
We are very excited to see ESA legislation introduced in the Senate! Senator Jerry Behn (R-Boone) introduced a similar bill last year. The bill was voted on as an amendment near the end of last year’s session and failed on a bi-partisan tie vote. This year, Senator Behn has a new bill and 24 co-sponsors! Thank you to each and every one of them for their willingness to support school choice for Iowa’s parents and students!
You can see the bill on the legislative website. We will continue to work with our school choice coalition partners to build momentum for ESAs and other school choice legislation.
ESA Action Alert! Huge Response So Far!
Our Action Alert on the House Education Savings Accounts (ESA) bill has received a huge response! Between IACS and our school choice coalition partners in Iowa, we are becoming convinced a record number of emails have been received by Representatives in the Iowa House.
HF 2090 is out of subcommittee and will now be considered by the full House Education Committee. Its future this year isn’t certain. Between a supposedly shorter session this year and the nature of passing a new idea that is opposed by the champions of the status quo, we have our work cut out for us.
We are, however, extremely encouraged by the grassroots support for ESAs across the State. If you have not emailed your Representative yet and asked him/her to support HF 2090, please do so by clicking here right now! We need all hands on deck to let the legislature know that Iowans are serious about not only starting this discussion, but taking action as soon as possible!
Some of the reaction online so far:
