Drinking Culture Shifts & Education Crisis | State Sen. Chris Larson

Published | Video Starts at 18:32

We put out a petition last week, Wisconsin Public Education Network. We pushed it yesterday from my office to say, hey, the governor needs to make up for this. Half the referendums that we keep seeing cycle after cycle wouldn't be necessary if we funded special ed. So even if you think this doesn't affect you because your kid does not get special ed, it does. It does in the form of bigger class sizes and smaller budgets and this. (18:32–18:40)
