>From Peter Seidman at vocnet:

As one reads the reports coming out of DC on the status of workforce
education legislation, one clear point is that the Eagle Forum is exerting
a powerful force on the direction such legislation takes or is prevented
from taking.

I got tired of reading second-hand accounts of what the EF has to say on
STW and voc ed.  So.  I found the group's website and downloaded the
relevant "horse's mouth" material.  I do not support the EF's agenda.  I,
however, do believe in hearing and understanding all sides' perspectives as
disturbing as these views might be.

Thus, I give you the URL for one of the Forum's statements.  The left hand
column of this web page contains links to the text of other relevant Forum
documents:
