PA legislature acts on reading lists

 The Republican Pennsylvania legislature has 

• not equalized the amount of school funding for rich and poor districts.  

• not solved the problem of reduced enrollment at state colleges.  

• not stopped pouring money into charter schools at the expense of public schools. 

• not allocated funds for personal computers for students during 

the pandemic


• not helped rural areas obtain access to broadband.


• not adequately funded community colleges.


But by God it has passed legislation that reading lists used in classes must be available on the internet.  When there is an irrelevant policy that will generate publicity and make an issue out of nothing, the Republican Pennsylvania legislature will jump in with both feet.
