It's National School Choice Week, and I've been working to raise awareness about the many benefits that school choice policies provide for parents and students across our country.
I have co-sponsored the official 2024 National School Choice Week Resolution, which commemorates this week and highlights all the benefits that school choice has brought so far, as well as the future opportunities for success it provides.
Studies have shown that school choice programs work. They improve academic outcomes, save taxpayers money, generate higher parental satisfaction, and ensure student safety.
It’s also essential that Congress enact policies to ensure that parents have a say in their children’s education. Why? Because parents, not D.C. bureaucrats or union bosses, know what's best for their children.
That’s why I supported the Parents Bill of Rights Act, which protects parents’ rights to determine how their children learn.
As your Representative in Congress, I am committed to supporting education policies that:
- Ensure that no student is trapped in a failing school.
- Protect parents' rights to decide how their children learn.
- Empower every student to succeed in school and build their own American Dream.
At the end of the day, more choices mean better opportunities for everyone. That's why I stand for school choice today and every day. |
