Recently, doctors, educators, and community leaders came together to speak out against I-2117 and explain exactly how it would harm our kids.
“One in 10 children in Washington struggle with asthma. Prolonged exposure to unhealthy, unclean air from older school buildings and diesel school buses exacerbates existing asthma and puts communities at higher risk of disease. Initiative 2117 cuts investments in clean, healthy, and safe school environments – it’s a bad deal for Washington kids, families, and educators.”
— Dr. Vin Gupta, pulmonary/critical care physician
“Initiative 2117 is a deceptive, dangerous initiative that would hurt students, families, and educators across Washington. It guts investments that allow students and educators to learn and teach in modern, safe, and healthy environments. The Washington Education Association urges our members, families, and fellow workers across our state to vote NO on 2117.”
— Andrew Eckels, President of the Seattle Substitutes Association, Washington Education Association member, and educator at a high school in Seattle
Onward,
No on 2117
