New York City Mother's Plea Against Education Budget Cuts

Published | Video Starts at 01:44

So kudos to cuny, to the union, to psc, to always standing on the right side of the issue. But quite frankly, Budget cuts are not a smart idea in the middle of the year or at any given time during their year. I don't care what calendar month it is. We should be always making more investments into education. Every single budget. No question. Education money is sacred, children's money is sacred. (01:44–01:50)

CLAIM

Asserts that budget cuts to education are ill-advised at any time.
