Sharpton Urges Gov Kasich To Push Legislature To Revise Unconstitutional School Funding Formula At Rally For Jailed Parent

Submitted by JournalistKathy... on Wed, 03/09/2011 - 04:29.

In the wake of a felony conviction and the jailing of an Akron, Oh. parent for sending her two children to a neighboring predominantly White school district with the hope of getting them a better education, the Rev. Al Sharpton is calling on Ohio Republican Gov. John Kasich to push the state legislature to comply with a longstanding mandate by the Ohio Supreme Court to revise its unconstitutional system of funding public education.

That mandate was issued nearly 14 years ago when the Ohio Supreme Court ruled in the state's landmark constitutional case of DeRolph. vs State of Ohio that its system of funding education partially through property taxes is unconstitutional. In its unprecedented decision Ohio's high court said that the state legislature's current school funding method has created property rich and property poor school districts to the detriment of poor children, and in violation of the requirement of Ohio's Constitution that the state legislature provide equal access to a “thorough and efficient” education for all of Ohio's children.

“Yes,” said Sharpton to the question of whether Kasich should lead the charge for the state legislature to comply with the Ohio Supreme Court's mandate to revise its inequitable system of funding education, a question posed by the DeterminerWeekly.Com and the Kathy Wray Coleman Online News Blog.Com during a press conference on Thursday.

Gov Kasich Wins Bout One As Senate Bill 5, That Strips Unions Of Power, Passes Ohio Senate, Heads To House

By Kathy Wray Coleman, Editor of the DeterminerWeekly.Com and the Kathy Wray Coleman Online News Blog.Com (www.kathywraycolemanonlinenewsblog.com and www.determinerweekly.com

A Republican fueled bill that takes away the right of Ohio public employees to strike and significantly curtails collective bargaining rights of police and other unions  passed the Ohio Senate this evening and is now headed to the House of Representatives, where Republicans have a commanding majority over Democrats, 59  to 40. And though Senate Republicans have a 23-10 majority, the bill narrowly passed the Senate, 17 to 16, with six Republicans joining all 10 of the Democrats in opposing it.

And Black leaders are not being quiet about it either. 

“The question is is this politics or politricks, and it seems like a lot of politricks in my mind,” said State Sen Nina Turner (D-25), a Cleveland Democrat.
