BILL INFO-2010 Regular Session-SB 590

Joe:

FYI - in light the recently enacted State legislation it makes no sense for Wicomico County to have an elected school board.

The liberals in office at the State House took care of that with there recently enacted their new collective barganing tool . . . SB 590. Essentially this collective bargaining agreement puts the shaft to the average taxpayer and takes their 'voice' right out of the equation.

Yet another reason for Succession of the Lower Eastern Shore.

since norm conway also works for the bd of ed, wouldn't this be a conflict of interests? supporting a bill that would surely effect his pay and or benefits along with retirement benefits?
just one more reason why he needs to go!

Norm doesn't work for the Board of Education any more. Get your facts straight.
