Call Congress--save jobs--give Duncan some opposition

(you know, that opposition he isn't aware he's been getting?)

I'm seeing some lively activity out on the wires around Rep. Obey's appropriation that would move money from Race to the Top and the Teacher Incentive Fund to the education jobs bill. It seems those who call themselves the "ed reform" crowd are less-than-thrilled at some in Congress remembering who holds the power of the purse (and the policy power that accompanies it).

You can bet that they've got calls into Congress, sounding the alarm to try to "save" the Obama education plan. If you've had your concerns about the direction this administration has taken on education, and you think it's about time that someone stood up against it, call Congress! You can reach the mainswitch board at 202.225.3121. There's a good chance the amendment will be voted on today or tomorrow.
