Cobb School Board GOP Majority Rejects Call for Gun Safety, School Meal Programs

In a recent Cobb School Board meeting, Democrat Becky Sayler proposed several amendments to the 2025 legislative priority list, focusing on school meal programs, gun laws, and increased counselor allotments. Despite support from fellow Democrat Leroy Tre' Hutchins, all motions failed. Only the proposal for more school counselors received cross-party support from Republican Brad Wheeler, but it was defeated in a 3-3 tie due to Democrat Nichelle Davis's absence. Sayler emphasized the importance of giving board members the opportunity to vote on these issues. Republican Board Chair Randy Scamihorn opposed the amendments, citing trust in district staff to prioritize necessary legislative actions and concern over lengthy priority lists being ignored by state legislators. Ultimately, the board unanimously approved a legislative priority list centered on financial sustainability, educational access, and safety and stability.
