Recent action taken by the state legislature on education funding and pension reform have brought about a lot of questions from not only educators, but also the public at large. Officials are hoping to be able to answer some of those questions at a public forum scheduled for Tuesday evening in Prestonsburg. Tuesday evening at the Mountain Arts Center, educators and state legislators will take part in a town hall forum hosted by the Floyd County Education Association. The hope is to provide factual information about recent action taken by the state legislature on education funding and pension reform for state employees. The forum for tomorrow evening originated through Floyd County's Education Association. They really step forward and have been trying to communicate with their communities and with their members, letting them know what's going on. We want it to be for anybody in the community. It's not just for teachers because when it comes down to it, education funding will affect students, it will affect teachers, but it can also affect the community members. Several mountain legislators have committed to attending the forum. The event had been planned for days, but the situation for the state's educators was complicated Monday by Governor Matt Bevan's promise to veto the recently passed budget and revenue bills. He could have lined item vetoed parts of the budget, but he just vetoed the whole thing so that's a problem for us. But the forum will still go on. We're going to keep on plugging along and doing what we've been doing because it's been pretty effective since KIA is getting the blame forum. The budget being vetoed, we'll just embrace that and keep doing what we did because it meant something to our legislators. The Town Hall Forum hosted by the Floyd County Education Association will be held Tuesday at the Mountain Arts Center beginning at 5.30 pm. The forum is open to the public.
