Ms. Okusko is an English Teacher at Sparta High School in Wisconsin. She was in an online class discussing politics with her students when she was unknowingly recorded, regardless of that the information with was sharing with her students wasn’t inaccurate and it was an opinion-based discussion. The audio recording was placed in the hands of a Republican Tea Party in La Crosse Wisconsin and are attempting a smear campaign against her. As far as I know she hasn’t been fired from her job but she has gotten in trouble due to this smear campaign against her. Please sign this petition to support her during this unnecessary situation. As someone who was a former student of her’s she always made me feel welcome as she did all her students regardless of how they felt about being taught by a Religious LGBTQ+ teacher. She doesn’t deserve this and I think she would appreciate a community backing during this time.
