The Educational Choice for Children Act (ECCA) aims to redirect public funds towards private and religious schools, undermining the public education system. Instead of diverting resources, we should explore evidence-based strategies that have proven effective in top-performing education systems. Many countries prioritize equitable funding, quality teacher training, robust curricula, and supportive learning environments. Public schools serve all students regardless of background and are vital for a prosperous, cohesive society. I urge you to reject the ECCA and invest in strengthening public education through research-driven policies and adequate, equitable funding. Public schools deserve our full commitment to ensuring every child receives a high-quality education.
