Re: Attn. Michigan Teams: $2,000,000 FIRST Pledge Cancelled
Today, I received a response to the email I sent yesterday:
Quote:
Dear Ms. Reynolds:
Thank you for your email regarding the reinstatement of Sec. 99 (C) of the School Aid Act. As of right now, Rep. Meisner has mentioned restoring this program. But, because both the House and Senate did not place this back in either of their budgets, there is not a point of difference; which means it is too late to add this back in. Also, Republicans will most likely argue that it's too late for this program because it is not a point of difference and because it is a proposal by the Governor and not one of theirs.
Many legislators have received emails on this request and we are suggesting that you work with Rep. Hummel's (R) office to request this program be inserted in the budget. He is the Chair of the House Appropriations Committee. His email address is shummel@house.mi.gov. His telephone number is (517) 373-1778.
Rep. Rich Brown
110th House District
888-663-4031

Recently my wife and I met some mentors from Michigan with their wives at Disney World. It seems that I'm not the only mentor who needs to bribe their wives with vacations before they sign up to mentor FRC for another year... - Mark Holschuh [more]
