CALL TO ACTION:
We have an increasing number of members demanding new or additional legal action. While this may become necessary, right now we are waiting on the legal process. The ADH has until October 4th to answer our lawsuit. At that time, we can decide what we do next legally.
Remember, most of you reading this post have only been involved for weeks, not months. These lawsuits in other states started long before ours – Pennsylvania started on May 7. Arkansas was slow to respond, but more people are fired up now than ever. So here is what you need to do, today:
- Call your local school board members (all of them). If you don’t know who they are, look on your school district website or call the superintendent’s office and ask for their contact info. Tell your school board members that they need to pass a resolution and send to the governor demanding (a) an end to the state of emergency and (b) a special legislative session.
- Call your local city council members (all of them). If you don’t know who they are, look on your city website or call the mayor’s office and ask for their contact info. Tell your city council members that they need to pass a resolution and send to the governor demanding (a) an end to the state of emergency and (b) a special legislative session.
If we can get a dozen school districts and as many city councils to pass these resolutions, we believe it will greatly impact the governor’s actions. Know that we are continuing to fight for you every day, but we need you to fight along with us. Please do this and confirm in the comments below when you’ve contacted them.
Thank you, Scott! I am a very willing participant with time (after my school day ends) each day. Just tell me what to do; you know my heart!!!
