The Utah teacher union has filed a lawsuit asking a judge to void Amendment A, a proposed amendment that would make changes to the state’s constitution regarding education funding. The union believes that the amendment would harm public education by diverting funding away from schools. In response to this, the union has also launched a campaign urging voters to vote ‘no’ on Amendment A in the upcoming election.
The lawsuit argues that the proposed amendment is unconstitutional and violates the state’s constitutional requirement for public education to be funded adequately. According to the union, if the amendment is implemented, it would lead to a decrease in funding for public schools, ultimately harming students and teachers.
The union’s campaign aims to educate voters about the potential negative impacts of Amendment A and to encourage them to reject the proposed amendment at the polls. The campaign will include outreach efforts such as advertising, social media campaigns, and community events to spread awareness about the issue.
The union’s president stated that they are committed to protecting public education in Utah and ensuring that students have the resources they need to succeed. The union believes that Amendment A would have disastrous consequences for education in the state and is urging voters to take a stand against it.
As the lawsuit moves forward in court, the union is mobilizing support for their campaign to vote ‘no’ on Amendment A. They are calling on voters to educate themselves about the issue and to join them in standing up for public education in Utah.
