So, things are pretty bleak in the education field. This is the latest editorial cartoon I created for my teachers union newspaper the JCEA Insight. This year the economic calamity has finally come home to roost in the field of education. Many districts in Colorado will be coming up short on the money side of things thanks to the Colorado legislature and Governor slashing the budget and once more cutting into education. They do this even though voters explicitly told them not to with the passage last year of Amendment 23. It seems to me that government is not doing a good job listening to the voters.
