Crosby residents sign education pledge

CROSBY — A group of Crosby area residents Wednesday signed a Fair Revenue for Our Kids and Communities pledge, committing support to elected leaders who advocate for a responsible balanced budget solution that closes corporate loopholes and makes the richest 1 percent pay their fair share in taxes, according to Our Future Minnesota, the organizers of the meeting.

Organizers said the Legislature’s decision to borrow from Minnesota schools left the Crosby-Ironton District with $3.4 million in IOUs from the school shift.

Crosby is Shameful for Using our Children for Left-wing Politics

Instead of calling on our legislators to stop stealing from our children, political hacks in Crosby are using our children to promote left-wing talking points. This is utterly shameful!

The facts are; if you stole every penny from what you are calling "the rich" 1 percent it still would not come close to balancing our our of control government budget for this year. In addition stealing everything from the rich would leave no tax base and future for our children to work at these businesses. I am outraged that the BDD would even give this any coverage.

Crosby's attempt to politicize and brainwash our children is wrong.
