Political group targets school boards

GOPAC's move to aid Republican candidates raises concerns about partisan influence.
IOWA REGISTER

A national organization known for grooming Republicans for congressional and state legislative offices is pointing its efforts at Iowa's school boards.

GOPAC, a Washington, D.C.-based political action committee, will offer training and possibly campaign contributions beginning this month to Iowa school board candidates who are registered Republicans, executive director John Morgan said. (rest of story)

As a former trainer for GOPAC, I say bravo.

Participation in Democracy is an activity we can’t leave to the liberal mainstream media and local teacher unions.

The reason why most local government races go uncontested is because no one shines a spotlight on their activity, except those nasty special interest groups with a vested interest to protect their turf.

Happy to read GOPAC is still engaged in The Revolution on behalf of overburdened taxpayers.
