ISTE needs your help to get full federal funding for ed tech! Here is an update on how you can help them achieve this goal TODAY:
Please join ISTE today, October 26th, for a national Day of Action to urge Congress to
fully fund the Title IV, Part A block grant.
This grant,
authorized at $1.65 billion as part of the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA),
is in danger of being funded at significantly lower levels by both the House
and Senate.
In order to
keep the pressure on Congress to fully fund the block grant, ISTE has joined
forces with over 100 hundred organizations to form the Title IV, Part A
Coalition, a united voice in urging Congress to provide maximum funding for the
program.
Here's what to do:
·
Send a prewritten
letter to Congress here.
·
Tweet using the hashtag #MoreTitleIV. Sample Tweets can be
found
here.
·
Call your senators and representatives with help from the Find
Your Representative tool. A sample script can be found
here.
Take action along with thousands of educators today to
support digital age learning and teaching!
