  • Thank you for signing onto the Page Amendment! Minnesota is facing an education crisis, with worst-in-the-nation education gaps by race, ethnicity and socioeconomic status. We need your help, and the help of your colleagues to fix them. The Page Amendment is the best opportunity we have had in over two decades to do this. Your leadership for transformative education reform is crucial. It is the hope of myself and our community that we may work together to define quality public education for all Minnesotans when it passes in November 2022!
