On Tuesday, May 22nd, at 441 4th St NW, the DC Board of Elections and Ethics ruled that the referendum measure proposed by DCPS grandmother, and graduate, Mary Spencer was proper subject matter to be considered for a referendum. Ms. Spencer's proposed referendum would suspend Titles I, IX and X of the DC Public Education 'Reform' Act of 2007 (Mayor Fenty's School Takeover Bill), which would stop the power hungry Mayor Fenty from taking away the powers of the elected Board of Education.
