Funk Outlines Frustration Over GOP Lawmakers Unwillingness To Confront ‘Entrenched Political Groups’ Which Aim To Protect The System
GOP struggles to gain support for two key education issues in the Oklahoma Legislature
by Rick Green
One of the top businessmen in Oklahoma is frustrated that the Republican-dominated Legislature hasn’t made more progress on education savings accounts, an issue typically supported by the GOP.
Robert A. Funk, the head of Express Employment Professionals, also contends it’s time to greatly reduce the number of school districts and administrators.
“These issues represent the reason many of us have worked so hard for so many years to assure that the makeup of the Oklahoma Legislature was changed to include people willing to confront entrenched political groups which desire to protect the current system of administrative waste and union control,” Funk said in a letter to lawmakers.
His company is one of the biggest employers in the state and generated more than $3 billion in sales last year.
He’s right on
Someone answer this……..do parents of illegal aliens, (also illegal) in our public schools also receive educational savings accounts?
