Local billionaire Rex Sinquefield is at it again. Not content to sabotage local control of the police he is now setting his sites on overturning local control of our schools. EDUCATORS SUE TO ENSURE VOTERS HAVE ALL THE FACTS ON REX SINQUEFIELD’S EXTREME BALLOT INITIATIVE “Filed in the circuit court of Cole County [Missouri], the lawsuit charges that the ballot summary is unfair and likely to deceive voters because it fails to mention that the constitutional amendment would permit school districts to fire or cut the pay of public school teachers and administrators without cause or due process, and it would create a burdensome one-size-fits all evaluation system mandating additional standardized testing of students. The suit also charges that the fiscal note fails to include financial analyses provided by local school districts stating Sinquefield’s amendment would cost schools millions of dollars in the first year with substantial on-going costs.”
