No on 8

September 2nd, 2010 by flanews

A Republican State Senator is going against his party and opposing a constitutional amendment weakening class size restrictions.

Many supporters of smaller classes are now supporting lifting some of the restrictions because there’s no money to get it done. Senator Alex Villalobos says the strictest phase of Class size could be easily implemented if the state legislature funded schools better.

“I’ll be traveling the entire state and letting people know what this is about. Number one it’s about money and less money going toward education and number two it’s about, the people have already spoken and they have said that they want smaller classes,” said Villalobos.

Villalobos is leading a campaign called No on 8. There’s also a lawsuit to kick the amendment off the ballot that will be in court next Wednesday.
