Issue Position: Public Schools

Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2020
Issues: Education

My family is not the only one counting on strong public schools for our children. Strong public schools build strong communities and a strong economy.

Our businesses depend on an educated workforce. But years of measly increases--so small they don't even keep pace with inflation, let alone meet actual needs--has taken a toll on our classrooms.

Iowa should have the strongest schools of any state. All children, regardless of where they live, deserve access to high quality education. Our schools must be able to attract and retain quality educators and support staff.

I will work to make these hopes a reality as a legislator who values, supports, and appropriately funds our public schools.
