What should I say?

Tell your legislatures to stop the cuts to public education.Please act to close the corporate tax loopholes. Corporations need to pay their fair share and not take anymore away from public education. $2 billion loophole tax dollars could be used to help California's students. 
From CJUHSD Superintendent, Mat Holton’s presentation
  1. 41% of the State's budget, goes to...K-12 Education
  2. Public Education has absorbed over %60 of State-wide cuts
  3. $17 Billion has been cut from education over the past two years
  4. $2.4 billion in additional cuts proposed for 2010-2011
  5. State Proposed Budgets reduces our Districts budget by an additional $253...per student
  6. Governors quote  "...I will protect education funding in this budget."  What happened?
  7. This State Budget Proposal causes us to reduce our Budget by $36 million by 2012-2013
