| Most important issue: | Invest in education, invest in our future. If we don't, our children and our country will suffer. I have a 3 point program to address problems faced today in public education: 1) Minneapolis schools need to provide healthy choices for breakfast and lunch. Our children face an obesity epidemic. 2) Kids need playground activity in the morning and afternoon. 3) Teachers need volunteers during lunch, classroom breaks and after school. Remember, healthy kids make healthy cities. Join me. I will be holding rallies in wards 1, 2, 7, 8, 10, 11, 12 and 13. Please visit my website: www.MaryBuss.com. Thank you! |
