Here is the full statement from the Missouri Farm Bureau:
“The Missouri Farm Bureau Board of Directors at their most recent board meeting voted to oppose Constitutional Amendment #3 regarding teacher tenure, performance and compensation. We have had many of our members – parents, teachers, school board members – express their concerns with some of the far-reaching and not well-thought-out provisions in Amendment #3. With the proponents having withdrawn their support for the Amendment #3, hopefully Missouri voters will understand this amendment has flaws and will vote “No” on Election Day.” – Missouri Farm Bureau President Blake Hurst
Protect Our Local Schools is a coalition of teachers, parents, principals, superintendents, education retirees, and school boards that formed to defeat unfunded mandates and a political take-over of our local schools in Missouri. We are working to defeat Constitutional Amendment 3, which treats students like numbers and takes local control away from parents, teachers, and school districts and hands it over to Jefferson City politicians.
