Picture

in the news:

There is a great concern with HB 2319 which would basically eliminate ALL student fees and charges. We believe that the bill which is in House Education Subcommittee 1 will be on the agenda when it meets at 4 pm Monday, January 28. If it passes out of the subcommittee, it will proceed to the full Education Committee. Del Richard Bell (DelDBell@house.virginia.gov) is chair of Subcommittee 1 and patron of the bill. Del. Stephen Landes (DelSLandes@house.virginia.gov  804.698.1025) is chair of the Education Committee. Membership of the Subcommittee is as follows: Bell, Cole, Davis, Heisel, Collins, Tyler, Bulova, Bagby, Landes. 

Contact needs to be made as soon as possible. See below for the link to the VCFAE position statement. The full text of the bill can be found HERE. Also attached is the fiscal impact statement which indicates that the fiscal impact on local districts is "indeterminate." Feel free to distribute as widely as possible. This legislation has significant broader impact than just the arts. Please remind folks that contact with legislators should be done from personal emails. Let me know if you have questions.
​

Thanks for all you do,
Barb
