  1. That Invest in Kids is such a fool’s pandering to folks unwilling to altruistically give for the “right” reasons, with schools waiting in the wings to reap monies they can’t get by simple donations.

    It’s about the kids, but it’s about the money.

  2. == shall also be sent to the Minority Leader of the Senate and the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives. Provides that the Minority Leader of the Senate and the Minority Leader of the House of Representatives may also object to agreements under the Act==

    Why would you give the minority party rights to do that? If you want to have a say then get more of your people elected.
