Yes, it is an important piece of legislation, But the children should not be involved with this.

A person must have very broad shoulders to be mevazeh talmedei chachomim b’rabim – who stated unequivocally to attend the rally. The Roshei Yeshiva Shlit’a and the Mashgiach shlit’a were fully behind this rally and their instructions b’nogaih gidrei tznius were fully adhered to.

Our tuition crisis is not nearly as large as our crises vis-avis a lack of kavod haTorah or worse – bizui talmedai chachomim. – Enough said!

Not Going or Going to the ralley has nothing to do with people not caring or weather we get vouchers
this is not Lakewoods battle it is a battle out there for years driven by catholics and others to make it sound like this ralley is make it or break it is naive.

Who paid for the buses?

Hypocrites

Very strange. The same people who are pro choice for a mother to murder her unborn child with public funding, are opposed to publicly fund a mother’s school choice for her born child. Nice work ACLU.

The buses were paid for by E3 which is a coalition of groups advocating for school choice . They get funded by private donations from individuals and foundations that care about childrens right to choose their education .
