An open letter to the U.S. Senate

No to S. Res. 44, yes to local public schools

3 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

The resolution you referenced, S.Res. 44, expresses the sense that families should have the freedom to choose traditional public schools, public charter schools, or private schools for their children's education. However, diverting funding from public schools to private school voucher programs can undermine the public education system that serves the vast majority of students. Public schools anchor communities and ensure every child has access to a free, quality education regardless of their family's income or circumstances. I urge you to reject S.Res. 44 and instead focus on increasing investments in our neighborhood public schools to provide all students with equitable educational opportunities and resources they need to thrive.
