Another  Sponsor of HB 2655 Opt Out Bill Speaks

1/23/2016

Back in November, I published this letter from Oregon Representative Lew Frederick to Oregon's Deputy State Superintendent Salam Noor regarding the intent of HB 2655, a bill he co-sponsored with, among others, Representative Chris Gorsek.  As opt out season is upon us, I was made aware that Representative Gorsek had also written a letter to Dr. Noor at the time. I regret not knowing this at the time that I published Rep. Frederick's letter and so I am publishing it here today. 

Thankfully, parents can cross out the offending language in ODE's opt out form which our two representatives addressed in their letters. 

Here is Representative Gorsek's letter.
