Issue Position: Investing in Education

Issue Position

"Like me, Jeff Waldstreicher has kids in our public schools, so he knows how important it is to keep our schools great. I'm voting for him because I know he'll always work to ensure public schools have the resources they need." -- Anne Balcer, Kensington

Jeff believes that every child deserves a great education. His children attend Montgomery County Public Schools just like he did. As State Senator, Jeff will continue working to keep our public schools strong.

Jeff's Plan:

Closing the achievement gap by reducing class size and increasing school funding to ensure that all students, regardless of zip code or family income, can get a high-quality education.
Paying teachers fairly so the can spend their time and effort focusing on what's important--equipping our kids for success in the 21st century.
Protecting our students by advocating for commonsense gun reform and opposing any efforts to arm teachers in Maryland, despite Trump's efforts to do so.
