ACT NOW TO FUND NEW PREPARATION PROGRAMS FOR FACULTY AND TEACHERS IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION ACT
Attached is a Dear Colleague being circulated by the office of Rep. John Yarmuth (D-KY) (Download it here)
It is asking other Members of the House of Representatives to sign on urging the appropriators to fund these important new programs in the FY 2010 appropriations bills.
We know at least one Republican will be signing on, so this will be a bi-partisan letter
Two of the programs will go directly to higher education to prepare teachers and faculty
ACTION NEEDED
CALL MEMBERS OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE AND URGE THEM TO SIGN ON
TELL THEM HOW IMPORTANT THESE PROGRAMS ARE TO STRENGTHEN TEACHER PREPARATION, ADDRESS FACULTY SHORTAGES AND REMOVE BARRIERS TO HIGHER EDUCATION FOR STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES
ASK THEM TO CONTACT LILLIAN PACE IN REP. YARMUTH'S OFFICE AT 202-225-5401 TO SIGN ON (THIS INFORMATION IS IN THE LETTER)
