Saving our schools and the kids in them

My kids went to the same public schools I did, but their teachers had to teach far more kids in packed classrooms.

This week, I introduced a bill to reduce class sizes and give students and teachers a better shot of success in the classroom.

Join the movement to invest in America's education system: share my Facebook post and let your friends know you're on board.

Research has shown that this common-sense approach improves students' performances, especially for students from low-income families. It's time we invest in the things that matter.
