Wow
It should alarm every American citizen that the sitting President of the United States, who has opened our border to over 9 million illegals, just announced that he would veto our bill to prevent noncitizens from voting.

After waiting all day for an amendment, we are now told by the Republicans that the AEA bill will come up for a final vote in the House at 6:30. Democrats have little time to read the amendment, and even less to debate it, and of course the public is being totally shut out. – at Des Moines, IA

AEAs have been all the talk this legislative session, but what exactly are they? If you don’t have school-age children, you might not realize the breadth of services our Area Education Agencies offer. Here’s what’s on the line when the Iowa Senate debates AEAs today:

Gwendolyn's condition left her blind, deaf, and with limited mobility. Now almost 6 years later, her mother celebrates the dedication of the AEA staff who never gave up on her daughter. thegazette.com/k/they-never-… . #EveryDayatAEA

With the Iowa House starting up their bill again, now is a good time to contact your legislators. Losing AEAs will hurt many schools in ways well beyond just special education. This does not help schools.
AEAs offer leadership and guidance to school districts on a range of educational matters, covering curriculum, assessment, technology integration, and school improvement planning. #iaedchat #EveryDayatAEA

Iowans have been loud and clear this session: Hands off our AEAs. Despite overwhelming bipartisan support for the current AEA structure, Republican senators advanced SSB 3073. Tell the Senate how critical AEA services are to all Iowa families: bit.ly/IASenEducation

AEAs provide specialized services that are not commonly found within individual school districts. These include early childhood education, special education, career and technical education, and professional development tailored to specific subject areas. #iaedchat #EveryDayatAEA

This is a must watch video in order to understand how terrible the AEA bill is. This is Superintendent Brad Buck, who used to be the Director of the Iowa Department of Education. He doesn’t mince words.
Take two minutes to watch this Iowa school superintendent's point-by-point takedown of Gov. Reynolds' plan to slash AEA services and funding. Parents, educators, and community leaders are sounding the alarm on the governor's plan. It's a terrible deal for Iowans. #ialegis

Did you know? The on-time graduation rate for students with Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) has risen from 75% in 2012 to 83% in 2022. We are proud of our partnership with Iowa school districts to serve all students. #EveryDayatAEA #iaedchat

In 2017, AEAs established a statewide print collaborative to increase efficiency of operations by sharing equipment and labor. Iowa teachers count on these timely and efficient services to provide a number of classroom resources to support instruction. #EveryDayatAEA #iaedchat
