After SPIN! "Question to Chris Fitzsimon – Senate President Pro Tem Phil Berger recently spoke to the education group Best NC and told the group that North Carolina’s 150,000 teacher assistants were as antiquated as the manual typewriter. In his six minute address he also praised more school choice through the voucher program, touted the Read to Achieve program and boasted about increased teacher pay. You wrote a column criticizing his remarks. Tell us why."
