Update - Effort to Recall Councilman Eric Bunch
The momentum is building behind the recall effort for Councilman Eric Bunch. So far, volunteers have gathered more than 15% of the signatures required from verified voters in the Fourth Council District to put the Councilman back on the ballot to face the voters. They have done this with only three out of the thirty days allotted.
Even constituents who are not necessarily opposed to local control of KCPD are signing due to their frustration with the political process that played out on May 20th. When the people of Kansas City are left in the dark, including other councilmembers, that’s when the political extremes dominate the conversation.
SAN DIEGO (KUSI) – San Diego City Councilmember District 5, Monica Montgomery-Steppe, penned an open-letter expressing her strong concerns for the issues surrounding the quality of education provided at Lincoln High School.
Montgomery-Steppe says she notice “familiar disparities that indicate there is much more work to do regarding equal access to a quality education in the City of San Diego.”
She explained that constant mistakes have turned the school’s education quality into a crisis that impacts the entire community.
Councilwoman Montgomery-Steppe joined KUSI’s Lauren Phinney on Good Morning San Diego to discuss her letter and possible solutions to the problems at Lincoln High School.
