The recommendations “are dishonoring the memory of the students and educators who have lost their lives,” said NEA President Lily Eskelsen García.

The Superior hearing was one in a series designed for the governor-elect to hear from citizens about what they would like to see in the state budget proposal he will present to the Legislature in January. WEAC members were also well-represented at earlier hearings in Green Bay and Wausau, and are also participating by providing their feedback on an online form created by WEAC for WEAC members.
