Vickie’s Hunch: IEA Will Sue

On her blog today, Editor Vickie Holbrook of the Idaho Press-Tribune/Nampa raised an interesting question: "When Idaho Education Association President Sherri Wood visited with the Idaho Press-Tribune editorial board a couple of weeks ago, she dropped the words, "Idaho's constitutional duty" to provide education. Listen to the audio. She didn't say it, but I sensed that a lawsuit against the state of Idaho could be a last resort if Luna's plan got the green light." You can reach more re: Vickie's hunch here.

Question: Does  the Idaho Education Association have good grounds to sue to stop implementation of Superintendent Tom Luna's education "reform" package, if it becomes law?
