MEA Votes

In this critical election year, the economy is the issue at the top of everyone’s mind. But it's another crucial yet less discussed issue – education – that really drives our economy by preparing students for future careers, encouraging local growth in 21st century jobs, and providing a cost-effective return on all of our tax dollars.

That’s why we’ve launched the MEA Votes Blog, providing a forum for discussion of the key education issues that are part of the political dialogue in our communities, our state and our nation. From how the dropout crisis relates to availability of local jobs, to how the No Child Left Behind law affects students and school employees across the country, the MEA Votes Blog is the place to make your voice heard on the issues you hear about in the school halls and on the campaign trail.
