Dear Flagstaff Chamber of Commerce: Although we recognize the gesture of a Teacher Appreciation Dinner, we respectfully decline the invitation. We feel attending your dinner would be condoning the AZ Chamber’s many coordinated attacks on public education over the years. You see, educators have been pleading with the state of Arizona for adequate public ed. This is happening right now with our fight to keep the voter-approved Prop 208 alive with all the legal challenges brought against it from the Chamber of Commerce. The Invest in Ed proposition will restore desperately needed education funding to our starved public schools and accomplish what the legislature has utterly failed to do.
