Stop the Tea Party from Destroying Education
The GOP shut down the federal government, and now they're threatening to gut $6 billion from the federal education budget. We can't let Speaker Boehner and the Tea Party throw our kids under the bus: No more education cuts!
Why is this important?
Our future depends on giving all our kids a chance, not robbing them of opportunity. Yet Republicans in Congress are proposing to cut $6.9 billion from our schools and our teachers in the next year, affecting over 6 million kids here in California and across the country.
