District Dispatch has posted a new item, 'House version of Educator Jobs Bill
includes funding to prevent layoffs of librarians'

Thank you to everyone who called their members of Congress about the Educator
Jobs Bill.  

The May 22 draft of the House Supplemental Appropriations bill includes an
Education Jobs Fund which specifically appropriates $23,000,000,000 to
alleviate shortfalls and prevent impending layoffs of teachers, counselors,
librarians, and other school personnel in order to preserve 300,000 jobs in
elementary and secondary schools.

This is great news for us.  Please call your representative and encourage them
to vote for this supplemental appropriation.
