MAJOR JROTC SUPPORT NOTE
Please Support AB 223 and 351. Instructors, Parents, Cadets, and Supporters of JROTC Programs.
Assembly-members Fiona Ma/Ted Lieu/Paul Cook sponsored legislation, AB223, to insure JROTC programs throughout California are given PE equivalency for JROTC Training.
Vital to keep JROTC alive in our schools, PE equivalency is big recruiting element in getting kids to join program.
Bill also calls for reinstatement of JROTC by San Francisco Unified School District’s Board of Education.
School Board voted in 2006 to phase out JROTC in San Francisco. But, Prop V (San Francisco) wrote to reinstate JROTC passed by 55%. Public supports JROTC, best nation-wide youth development program in country!
It is absolutely critical to flood our legislators with positive messages about Assembly Bill 223. AB 351 has the full support of JROTC Instructors state wide so please support both.
