Class is back in session: The Spartanburg six – round 2

We are approaching the second weekend of the Spartanburg voter education initiative.

Remember, the South Carolina’s Educational Opportunity Act, H.3407, was defeated in the SC House of Representatives by a vote of 60 – 59.

Six Spartanburg County Republicans joined Forty-four Democrats to kill the bill.

Please join Campaign for Liberty Spartanburg County Coordinator Jeremy Sands and other local grass roots leaders and activists as they organize visits to the homes of Spartanburg voters in an effort to make sure they know how their representative voted on this bill.

This weekend we will be working in Representative Steve Parker’s district.  Not only did he vote against school choice, he was the one who tried blocking immediate consideration of the Roll Call bill in the House earlier this year.

Don’t you think a parent knows what kind of education is best for their child? If you support a parent’s right to choose the best education for their child, then come join the fun.

We need as many people as possible to help canvass Spartanburg county with Voter Education flyers regarding the vote to kill H3407.

We will need to cover about 3,000 houses each weekend for the next two weekends.

We’ll be meeting Saturday at 8:30 in the empty lot behind the McDonalds, address 1917 Boiling Springs Road (which is Highway 9 off of Interstate 85).

Spartanburg County is the key to winning the battle for school choice.
The Spartanburg Six

• Rita Allison
• Doug Brannon
• Derham Cole
• Mike Forrester
• Steve Parker
• Eddie Tallon

joined 44 Obama Democrats to defeat the SC School Choice bill for our children.

These six represent voters like you who support school choice. We need to make sure all their constituents know how they voted this time… so these constituents can contact their representatives and encourage them to support school choice next time.

Several of The Spartanburg Six sent the exact same email in answer to frustrated voters, “I did not support H.3407 because of its fiscal impact …” and they used an approximate $64M cost to support their no vote.  They neglected to mention that the report they are quoting from shows a $66M SAVINGS, for a net savings to taxpayers of $2M from the school choice bill they defeated.

Well perhaps it WAS about the money.

With several of The Spartanburg Six taking campaign contributions from the South Carolina Education Association (SCEA) and the South Carolina Association of School Administrators (SCASA), it becomes clear who they are getting their direction from… it is not the families like yours who want the freedom to choose to educate your child by using your own tax-exempt dollars.

So, if you think a parent knows better than a Columbia politician what is the best educational opportunity for their child, join us in handing out voter awareness flyers in Spartanburg county.

Key homes in key districts have been identified to receive these flyers with the facts about the vote to kill the South Carolina Educational Opportunity Act.

We need to cover about 3,000 houses each weekend for the next two weekends.

If you can help this weekend, we’ll be meeting Saturday at 8:30 in the empty lot behind the McDonalds, address 1917 Boiling Springs Road (which is Highway 9 off of Interstate 85).

Remember, the taxpayer funded establishment lobbyist won’t stop working against us, so we can’t let up now!
