Letter to the editor: Lillie mailer deceives

The first mailer of the 2012 election season came to our home from some business independent expenditure group, urging us to thank Senate Majority Whip Ted Lillie for his apparently valiant attempts to restore public school funding while Gov. Dayton thwarted his efforts: “Senator (Lillie) voted for the bill that would start paying our schools back. Unfortunately, the Governor opposed the payback and vetoed it.”
