Issue Position

Issues: Higher Education K-12 Education Education

If there's one thing we all agree on in this district, it's that our schools are supremely important.

We've got some of the best school districts in the state and the 2013 Legislature approved free all-day Kindergarten, enhanced funding for pre-K and improvements to higher education support.My opponent voted against all these measures, however.

Studies show that investment in our schools is one of the surest ways of getting a high return: it gives our kids a promising future; it strengthens our workforce and helps grow our state's economy; and it enhances property values.

Minnesotans have shown that they overwhelmingly support strengthening our schools. Our House Representative who sits on the Education Finance Committee should recognize that.
