February 2024 - List of Topics 
LOCAL UPDATE
  • The Fourth District PTAAdvocacy Forum last month was an opportunity for PTA advocates from around Orange County to share their ideas.  These included a Student Advocacy Program that takes high school students to Sacramento for one day, ideas for a candidate forum, and a campaign to increase federal funding for special education (Keep the Promise IDEA).
  • CUCPTSA will have 31 representatives attending Sacramento Safari. We are excited to have Dr. Brown and President Castellanos joining us in Sacramento this year.
STATE UPDATE
  • Governor Newsoms initial budget proposal assumes a $38.7 billion deficit, $30 billion less than what  the Legislative Analyst had predicted.  The proposed budget maintains funding for most education programs.  However, the projected revenues have fallen below expectations since the budget proposal. We will have a better understanding of the deficit after state income taxes have been collected, and the governor will issue a revised budget in May

FEDERAL UPDATE
  • Join the "Keep the Promise IDEA Fully Fund SPED" campaign on Facebook at "Keep the Promise IDEA" and on Instagram at "keepthepromiseidea"
  •  Capistrano Unified Council PTSA will be in Washington DC in March.
  • Advocacy letters for National PTA by category: Child Health and Safety, Education
