2. This is unfuckingbelievable
Edited on Sun Jul-13-03 01:14 AM by wtmusic
Read the text of the letter from the administration:

http://www.saveheadstart.org/Bush_Administration_letter_to_HS_officials.pdf

"If a grantee has done this (engaged in political activities), it must prove that Federal funds, or resources purchased with those funds—such as Head Start staff time and facilities—were not used as requested by the advocacy group."

If HeadStart employees engage in political activities, THEY MUST PROVE that it was on their own time. The admin is trying to gut HeadStart and at the same time intimidate any employees from speaking out about it. This lawsuit has merit and hopefully they will not only kick the admin's ass but draw attention to the dismantling of HeadStart.
