Lewis signs on in support of Citizens Advisory Council on Communication petition

In my email to Congressional Candidate Dan Lewis, asking for his support of the petition, link, for standing of the new Citizens Advisory Council on Communication, I apologized for not asking sooner. He came on board late because his invitation came late. The oversight was mine. Nevertheless, he is on board.

His response;

"... I support the petition and its goals completely.
Please let me know how I can assist ..."

It has been nearly a week now, since the petition was handed to the board, and the school board and administration are yet to respond. Though the petition included an email address through which they could communicate to the Council's exploratory committee, the leadership of the APS has yet to acknowledge even the simple receipt of the petition, much less express their intentions with regard to accommodating the requests made therein.

I have often pointed out that the only defense of an indefensible position is to hide it.

Any resistance to earnest support of the Advisory Council is indefensible, and APS' only defense of that position is to hide it. The leadership of the APS will not reject the petition outright; they will simply continue to pretend it was never presented; underscoring the need in the first place, for an Advisory Council on "communication".

They will succeed only if we allow them.
