February 17, 2017 – Contact your legislators today.
Please contact your state and federal representatives to let them know:
- That you are a constituent (offering your name and street address to confirm this).
- That you are a homeschooling parent.
- That you do not want any public dollars (vouchers, tax credits, educational savings accounts, etc.) to be directed to Wisconsin homeschoolers.
It is incredibly valuable to contact your legislators before any specific legislation comes to a vote. If legislators know that homeschoolers do not want this type of help, they are less likely to introduce and support legislation that offers public dollars to homeschoolers.
WPA has long asked homeschoolers to to contact their representatives at the beginning of each new legislative session. We also encourage people to visit their legislators in person. Contacting your representatives regularly keeps the message that homeschoolers don’t want government dollars or favors at the forefront of their minds. It is the squeaky wheel that gets the grease.
