Hawaiis' Educators salary raise?


So I've been following the news about the new contracts for Hawaii's teachers and the issues with the random drug testing. I understand that in light of the past reports of teachers arrested for drug abuse the need for random drug testing is vital to ensure the safety of our students. Now the issues is where will the money for the drug tests come from?
I think the governor and the DOE board need too stop pointing fingers and just make a decision. Honestly, I would rather see the funds go towards needed programs rather than testing our teachers.
