Unless you act now, our children will bear another burden of the economic crisis brought about by the failed policies of George W. Bush.

Our kids need your help. Thousands of Colorado teachers are facing layoffs, and students from all across the state could be forced into larger classes with less personal attention, fewer course choices and even cuts to instruction time.

Add your name to our petition asking Senators Mark Udall and Michael Bennet to stand up for Colorado’s students, teachers and schools and support the Keep Our Educators Working Act. Senators Udall and Bennet have been true champions for public education. We need their proven leadership now more than ever.

The Keep Our Educators Working Act will provide desperately needed money to Colorado school districts, save or create over 3,300 jobs in Colorado and ensure our public schools, one of the most important factors in a sustained economic recovery, remain strong and able to provide a top-notch education for our kids.

Sign our petition today: Tell Udall and Bennet you support this bill.

Your voice can have a big impact in making sure our schools remain strong and our students have the best chance for academic success. Take two minutes and add your name in support of the Keep Our Educators Working Act – we’ll make sure Senators Udall and Bennet hear loud and clear from you.

It only takes a moment to help keep Colorado’s schools strong. Please sign on in support of the Keep Our Educators Working Act and we’ll make sure Senators Udall and Bennet get your message about the importance of standing up for Colorado’s students. Thanks!

Update: Thank you Sen. Michael Bennet, who has expressed strong support and signed on this month as a cosponsor of S.3206.
