\nON SATURDAY, MARCH 28TH
\nAT 2PM
\n<\/b><\/p>\n
Remarks at Press Conference This Morning at NAACP Office:<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not want political leaders who give public funds without public accountability.<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not want public funds used as “pork” for schools who dictate who you should date based on skin color.<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not want politicians who use public funds as a way to reward schools they graduated from.<\/p>\n
It took Gov. Beasley and Rep. Haskins 3 years to fund full-day kindergarten for our children.<\/p>\n
It took both of them 3 years to raise out teachers\u2019 salaries to the the SE average.<\/p>\n
But when Bob Jones University<\/b> went to Beasley and Haskins, they got state funds in just a matter of weeks.<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not believe that our children and teachers should wait while Beasley and Haskins puts BJU on the fast-track program for our tax money.<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not want our public funds used to bail out BJU because of their declining enrollment when our public schools are overcrowded.<\/p>\n
Taxpayers do not want our public funds misused by politicians who buy themselves desks and computers while our public school children need them.<\/p>\n
We ask that the State Senate controlled by Democrats to stop this misuse of public funds by the GOP House.<\/p>\n
If BJU wants our public funds, they should be held accountable like all the other schools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
