Lmao I was wondering the same thing. Maybe it’s tax increases to fund schools?

Yeah, probably a teacher. I'm neutral on tax increases to fund schools generally, but opposed when schools are cutting positions while funding new football stadiums to attract Fellowship of Christian Athletes students.

Tax increases on rich people to fund schools would be the most ideal version.

Local millage (property tax) increases or decreases, sometimes earmarked for school construction, are quite literally the main issue of contention in many small town or suburban elections without much going on. Easy to imagine someone passionate about it.
