Once again, the liberals break something and the conservatives have to come in fix the problem.
From the LVRJ: The teachers union stepped out of Clark County School District's way
in the nick of time Friday morning, allowing the district to apply for
$40 million of federal grant money with just a few hours to spare before
the submission deadline.
Gov. Brian Sandoval laid the groundwork
for the settlement by volunteering to mediate a meeting between the two
parties Thursday night and announced the agreement after a second
meeting Friday. Although the district is applying for the Race to the
Top grant, it first had to receive the support of its teachers union,
the Clark County Education Association, under the Obama administration's
requirements. That proved difficult.
The two parties have been
quarreling for a year now, with the union suspending all joint ventures
with the district in March. The union also turned down a half dozen of
the district's attempts from July through October to collaborate on the
Race to the Top application....
It took a governor to bring the parties together, and the district
didn't need to change much of its grant application to win over the
union. If awarded the $40 million, the district would still spend the
money on 41,000 students at 63 of Clark County's poorer schools, giving
them high-technology tools and literacy intervention programs. The
district would also hire 22 teachers and 24 support staff dedicated
mostly to helping students struggling with English. http://www.lvrj.com/news/teachers-union-relents-signs-off-on-school-district-grant-request-176989401.html
So, you have a liberal organization- CCSD and a very liberal organization- the teacher's union fighting over a liberal administrations requirement- the Obama administration and it takes a conservative GOP governor to come in and clean up the mess.
Another reason to vote for Mitt Romney- to clean up the mess the liberal administration (Obama's) and the Senate (currently held by Democrats and run by senile Harry Reid) and the House which is run by a bunch of clowns.
Otherwise, nothing will change in Washington D.C..
