School Bus Monitors in the State Budget
**I received this note from Sophia Pendergast. If you want to help, contact your legislators regarding the Governor's supplemental budget plan cutting this local school requirement of K-5 monitors, now is the time! Are kids living in wealthy districts the only ones who should be entitled to these monitors because that is wherein the future lies? Contacting locals (schools & councils) can't hurt either. Politicians respond to constituents!
The bill is House bill 5019 article 18 regarding school bus monitors. To help keep the mandate, please call your legislator, Senate President Paiva-Weed, House Speaker Murphy, the Governor, Senator Costantino and their local legislators.
To find out who they are go online to www.rilin.state.ri.us and they can find a list.
Friends & Family,
I have a very important request. The Governor has proposed budget cuts that will eliminate school bus monitors. If passed, this will present significant danger to children who ride school buses in Rhode Island. I am attaching a letter for you to e-mail to Governor Donald L. Carcieri, Steven M. Costantino, Chairman of the House Finance Committee, Theresa Paiva-Weed, Senate President, your local legislators and to any other members of the state legislature you choose. This letter expresses your opposition to eliminating monitors.
Please email the attached letter to each person individually. If you are unsure how to e-mail the letter, instructions are provided at the end of this e-mail.
Calling your legislators is very powerful! We implore you to consider calling after you send your e-mail. Please forward this email to all your friends and family in Rhode Island. This issue affects all of us and it will take lots of voices to be heard! Finally, please copy FISST@cox.net when you email your legislators. This will help us track our progress.
You can look up your Senate and House of Representatives District by going to: http://www.sec.state.ri.us/vic and entering your name, date of birth & zip code. I have listed the names, email addresses and phone numbers of the Newport County legislators below. If you live outside Newport County and are unsure of who you should contact, please e-mail: Families Insisting on Safe Student Transportation at FISST@cox.net Or call one of us: · Sophia G. Pendergast at (401) 846-8513· Julie A. Mott at (401) 225-1791
We will happily provide any information you need very quickly. Thank you for your support of this very important issue!
