Issue Position: Education

Issue Position

I believe that if we neglect to provide the next generation with a solid education, the nation we know and love will cease to exist. I'll be a staunch supporter of school choice because I believe that parents can better decide what's best for their children than the government does. Furthermore, teachers are the building blocks of our nation's education, and as such, deserve the proper funding to support their undertaking.

"I consider knowledge to be the soul of a republic, and as the weak and the wicked are generally in alliance, as much care should be taken to diminish the number of the former as of the latter. Education is the way to do this, and nothing should be left undone to afford all ranks of people the means of obtaining a proper degree of it at a cheap and easy rate." -- John Jay
