Early Childhood Education in Florida is at Risk!

Four bills propose sweeping changes to Florida’s early learning system.  They are:

·        PCB BCAS 12-04 by Business & Consumer Affairs Subcommittee

·        5103 by Representative Coley

·        HB 7055 by Representative Gaetz

·        PCB PKAS 12-02 by Prek-12 Appropriations Subcommittee
 

This legislation, which is being fast-tracked by the Florida House of Representatives, proposes statutes that would eliminate approximately 58% of the children currently served in Manatee County through the Early Learning Coalition.

Please see this letter from Paul Sharff, Executive Director of the Early Learning Coalition of Manatee County and this informational flyer from FLAEYC.

Use these links to contact information of members of the Business & Consumer Affairs Subcommittee and PreK-12 Appropriations Subcommittee as well as information for elected officials that represent Manatee County. Please contact them as a concerned private citizen.
