The issue of Education is important to our district and to my work in Congress.
An educated population is the backbone of a prosperous society and a strong economy. Our nation’s youth are best served when decisions about education are made locally. Local officials are more accountable to parents and teachers, tax dollars are used more efficiently and regulations are tailored specifically to the community.
