Educators back Carnahan

An "Educators for Robin" initiative was announced today by Democratic U. S. Senate candidate Robin Carnahan:

Today, Robin Carnahan’s campaign launched Educators for Robin to bring together Missouri educators who share her commitment to fix what’s broken in Washington and put Missouri families first. The group is co-chaired by 7 educators from across Missouri - Sharon Yoder, St. Louis County; Leo and Shirley Langford, Christian County; David Sugg, Carroll County; Richard Pope, Camden County; Peggy Cochran, Morgan County; and Donna Cushman, Clay County.


Robin believes that strengthening our public education system is about more than just expanding opportunity and fulfilling the American dream—it’s also about making sure the U.S. remains competitive in the global economy. For her efforts to support educators and students, she has earned the endorsements of the National Education Association (NEA) and the Missouri NEA, as well as the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and the Missouri AFT.
