Kentucky Education Action Team (KEAT)
Weekly Budget Messages:

For the next three weeks we will be sending you messages regarding the Governor’s proposed education budget cuts. Each week we will focus on a different program that if cut will directly affect our students’ education.

Here is a template letter for the first week’s budget cut: Funding for FRYSCs. We are asking that you send this letter to your Senator and House Representative.

• Feel free to add your own personal experience with each program and more information about how you feel it benefits the state and our children.
• If you do ask for a response, please make sure to include your email address, phone number, address and/or other contact information.
• Please share any responses you receive from legislators with Sharon Whitworth, Kentucky PTA Legislative Commissioner at [email protected] .

It is vital that we reach out to our legislatures at this crucial time. We appreciate all that you do for the children of Kentucky.
