====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== January 13, 2004 Dear HSLDA members and friends: Your tremendous efforts worked! AB 4033 died last Monday at the end of the 2002-2003 legislative session because it was never brought up for a vote. In the rush and confusion of the last day of the legislative session we suspected that Assemblywoman Loretta Weinberg (D-37) might use a parliamentary tactic, thereby avoiding a public hearing, to obtain passage of this harsh homeschool bill. You did a fantastic job alerting every lawmaker in the state! HSLDA is working closely with other organizations on this issue: Tricounty Home Educators Association, New Jersey Homeschool Association, Education Network of Christian Homeschoolers of New Jersey, Unschoolers Network, Catholic Homeschoolers of New Jersey, and Eagle Forum of New Jersey. Representatives of these groups met last Saturday in East Windsor and affirmed their commitment to work together toward stopping any legislative effort to restrict home education. As of this writing, Weinberg has filed 72 bills as primary sponsor in the 2004-2005 Assembly, and 88 as a co-sponsor, but none deal with homeschooling. We will watch the situation carefully. Thank you for standing with us to protect homeschool freedom in New Jersey. Sincerely, Scott A. Woodruff HSLDA Staff Attorney {{JoinAd}} ====================================================================== The HSLDA E-lert Service is a service of: Home School Legal Defense Association P.O.
