UPDATE: Senator Audrey Gibson and Representative Tracie Daivs are now on record as opposing J-1 bill!
But we still haven't heard anything from Representatives Byrd (R), Daniels (D), Yarborough (R)Â
The J-Bill introduced by Representative Jason Fischer would call for a voter referendum to make the Superintendent of Duval County Public Schools elected instead of being appointed by the elected Duval County School Board. Duval Dems oppose Fischer's J-1 bill. We view any elected Superintendent would be beholden to special interests and campaign donors, instead of the students of Duval County Public Schools.
