JOIN US IN EDUCATION REFORM

A new report that showed a nearly 3 percentage point jump – from 18.9 percent to 21.7 percent – in California’s high school dropout rate from 2007-08 to 2008-09 triggered alarmed headlines around the state.

Why? The district’s dropout rate inexplicably soared from 9.2 percent to 23.5 percent.

Loraine Goodwin Will Lead the Valley into the Future _ Jeff Denham Not Educated to Residents

Denham in Congress will have to follow his party and fight to repeal health care reform. Denham has no clout with his party, so he has to do this. Denham has essentially no significant education, so nobody in Congress is going to care what Denham thinks.
*In the meantime, insurance companies will be rapidly increasing premiums, so many of you will not be able to afford healthcare any way.
*A vote for GOODWIN will get the insurance premiums down, including Medicare Advantage. Loraine Goodwin will also ensure care for women, children and aging baby-boomers too.
