Our Kids Our Future
Our Schools Are In Financial Crisis Congress has spent over $2 trillion in federal stimulus dollars to support critical sectors of our economy during the global COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, less than 1% went to public education. Congress is considering cutting funding for schools by up to $700 per student which would result in significant cuts to programs, student support services, and staff.
