Luna Campaign Filing Statement

The Committee to Recall Tom Luna seeks to return accountable leadership to the office of the Idaho State Superintendent of Public Instruction by removing Tom Luna from elected office. Under Tom Luna’s Leadership, the Idaho legislature has rammed through the three part “Student’s Come First” education reform that will create a series of long lasting damage for Idaho families. Luna did not draw support across the aisle, and he disregarded the will and voice of the majority of Idahoans who will be negatively affected by the reforms.  Mr. Luna no longer represents the best interests of students, parents, teachers, and the public education system. Mr. Luna ran on a pro-education platform consistently reiterating that major reforms were not necessary.  Then, to the contrary, he launched a complete overhaul of the Idaho public education system during the 2011 legislative session/Committee to Recall Tom Luna.
