Dear Senator [Insert Last Name],

In order to fulfill the Ohio legislature’s constitutional responsibility to fund a high-quality education throughout the state, we call upon the Ohio Senate to reinstate the Fair School Funding Plan (FSFP) in the Budget.

I am a resident of [district] and [add a personal note—feel free to include LWVMC facts or your own story].

The proposed budget for many Franklin County school districts shows a reduction of funds from the bipartisan FSFP target over the next two years. This will have a very negative impact on many students.

I appreciate your help and ask that you please send me a response letting me know if you are able to pass the budget with the FSFP and honor the legislature’s constitutional duty to adequately fund public schools.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,
[Insert Your Name]
