Action Item: Rep Dan Moul

Contact Representative Dan Moul, R-91.  Representative Moul attended New Oxford High School in the Conewago Valley School District.  Since he attended, the Conewago Valley School District has lost per-student state basic education funding year after year.  In the current school year, Conewago Valley School District received almost $3.5M LESS in PA State Basic Education Funding than the Fair Funding Formula calls for!  And over the 6 years since ACT 35 of 2016 was enacted, the school district has been underfunded by a total of nearly $10M compared to what it should have received if PA’s Fair Funding Formula was fully utilized for Basic Education Funding.  

Ask him to co-sponsor Rep Ciresi’s and Rep Sturla’s Fair Funding bills. Both bills substantially advance the cause of equitable funding.
