Issue Position: Improving Access to High Quality, Affordable Education:

Issue Position

Though Colorado has one of the most educated populations in the country, we are in the bottom three in spending on K-12 education. In our emerging high-tech, high-skills economy, this has resulted in Colorado being dependent on out-of-state transplants for skilled workers, while young Coloradans are being left behind. In the next session, I will continue to push for legislation that improves the quality of public schools, reduces class sizes, increases access to high quality early childhood education and provides tuition assistance to low- and middle-income college students.
