He can’t wrangle so they’re just closing up shop. Great job Emmer!

Something tells me this story is repeated across each of the others. And again THIS ISN’T TO SAVE MONEY.

All the media coverage says this plan is happening to cut costs, yet we don't have estimates of how much would be saved? What the heck are we doing MPS??16 Sep 2026 21:53 +0000at://did:plc:cl7phygbwegxk7ot6fdaixrr/app.bsky.feed.post/3mvo4tvgdok26https://bsky.app/profile/jakeschwitzer.bsky.social/post/3mvipcurfns2wWhat a crazy coincidence that this just keeps happening in the GOP.

We’re going to keep this updated as the permanent home for school funding data. Bookmark it.
