Senator Gumm Comments on Rural Senate Republicans Remarks on Forced School Consolidation

 

Note to Editor:  Earlier today Senator Gumm issued a press release stating he has filed legislation to end the threat of forced school consolidation 

 

“I welcome rural Senate Republicans to this fight and look forward to their support for SJR 35.

Further, I expect them to encourage leaders in their own party – especially those in the House of Representatives – to end their incessant and repeated attempts to destroy rural public education and the communities we call home.”
