House Education Committee
Hearing for HB 2560
June 13th
A SEA OF RED!
What an encouraging sight it was to see the overwhelming support for HB 2560 expressed in the various shades of RED worn at the informational hearing! We estimated attendance at 1200-1400 with a ratio of red to blue at 10 to 1! Thanks to all for making the trip and showing the legislators you support this bill and the freedom it represents for home educators in PA!
We not only have pictures - we have thousands of words to go with them! Here is a summary of the hearing with personal notes and observations submitted by Donna Donnell (her online nickname is twyn1) and minor editing by us. It is also available as a Word document for printing.
