Senate and House members are predicting a razor close override vote on the governor’s education bill veto Monday afternoon when lawmakers are scheduled to meetJUNEAU, Alaska --
“My hope would be that we overwhelming override the veto, Wielechowski said. “That would be my hope because that sends a very strong message. I just don’t know that that’s the case. “I’ve learned in this business that things change. They’re very fluid. I’ve been talking with people just today and texting people and I’m hearing it’s very fluid and people are getting very pressured on a lot of different sides.
The final version of SB-140 passed by the House and Senate did not contain a provision allowing state school board members, appointed by Dunleavy, to have new charter school approval power and a $61 million proposal to pay for a three-year teacher bonus pilot program, to study if $5,000 to $15,000 payouts, based on a school’s location, successfully recruits and retains Alaska teachers.
Echoing dissenting voices reacting to the Friday veto, Wielechowski expressed serious concerns about what not overriding the veto would mean for the future of Alaska’s education system.
