Children should never, ever be discriminated against.

I support Congress readdressing this and looking at this budget item, ensuring schools have the resources that they need to keep kids safe.

No student, no child should be treated or disciplined differently based on their skin color, their race or their national origin.

Charter schools are a great option for thousands and thousands of students, and the demand for more of them remains very high.

One act of sexual violence is one too many, and one student that does not have due process is one too many.

We propose Congress spend their money wisely, efficiently, and with restraint.

Congress vowed that the move would, quote, 'not increase the authority of the Federal Government over education or diminish the responsibility for education which is reserved to the states.'

This budget is about students. It is easy to get lost in the numbers and forget about the faces of students whom we have all pledged to serve.

Our Nation has both a legal and moral obligation to educate every child.

We are focused on making sure... that the rights and due process rights are respected for all parties involved in such complaints.

I do not think it is a role of the Federal Department of Education to tell schools what they can and should do or cannot and should not do.

I think a school is a sacrosanct place for students to be able to learn, and they should be protected there.
