@GovEvers ignored the pleas of help from parents who came the hearings and shared their stories of not finding out their student was struggling to read until they were older. Reading Readiness was a plan forward. Evers took that from these students. #eversIgnoresParents
The funding is already there for these assessments and schools already do them 3X per year. The truth is that schools will notify parents by saying their student is "fine" or "getting extra help". Parents need data and transparency. Struggling readers need help quickly!!
@GovEvers "Just when it looked like there was hope for help, you squashed it like a bug! So much for taking care of children!" --Parent #EversIgnoresParents #WIParents #wisconsinreadingcrisis #outtatouchtony #kidswant2read #dyslexia #readingadvocate #goveversvetosreading
It is even more disheartening to try to see a glimmer of hope for change at the state level and then to be ignored by @GovEvers!!! #RiseUp #wisconsin #dyslexia #civilrights #dyslexiaawareness #GovEversVetosReading #dyslexiaadvocate #reading #education #OttaTouchTony #WIParents
Yes!! And we understand that @GovEvers could have added funding if he wanted from the money he controls. WI Kids need help NOW!! Parents want to know help is here!!

We have a problem and “kicking the can down the road” with another task force does nothing to solve it. Funding already exists for screening, the bill only asked that screeners meet specific criteria.
.@GovEvers vetoes Senate Bill 454, which would overhaul how schools respond to "at-risk" readers by increasing testing for young students and require educators to create a personalized reading plans. Democrats opposed the bill, in part, because it did not provide new funding.
@GovEvers staff lied to parents who wanted to get help for WI students quicker.
Does he think WI parents are stupid?
