Issue Position: Educating The Next Generation

Issue Position

Education is the key to Tennessee's future. We need an education system that provides our students with the skills they need to compete and succeed in life. Every child should have access to a quality education that teaches the fundamental skills needed to compete in a global economy. Without an educated workforce, Tennessee cannot compete nationally, and America can't compete in a global economy. Washington can't just throw money at our schools. We must place emphasis on the individual students, not on federal educational mandates from bureaucrats. The federal government needs to get out of the classroom and let our good teachers do what they do best.
