From the AZ Daily Star:
"Eric Shelley, a budget specialist for a health-care company, said the Legislature must invest in education so the state can improve its business development and generate more tax revenue.
"Businesses don't want to come here if they think there's no education going on, if there's no place for their employees to raise their kids," he said. "If you are pro-business, you should be pro-education." "

From the Daily Wildcat:
"The university budget cuts have been an obvious cause for concern for administrators, legislators and student leaders. For as much attention as some have given the crisis, most students do not yet realize the impact it will have on their education."

From the Tucson Citizen:
"The protesters included students, parents, people from school organizations, labor unions and others critical of budget cuts already made and the prospect of deeper reductions.
In January, the Legislature cut about $130 million from K-12 public schools to help close a $1.6 billion shortfall in the then-$9.9 billion budget for the current fiscal year."
