Today I rise with grave concerns over another border record shattered by this administration. We know that the border crisis has national security consequences and also humanitarian consequences. Just recently, the Washington Examiner…

I believe it is high time that we invest in this program and other drought related programs before the situation becomes even more dire.

This delay is obviously unacceptable.

We need to make sure that parents have the choice for their kids' education, and that is what I am very passionate about.

I would suggest you meet with charter school leaders about their current difficulties they are facing when applying to this program.

I just want to caution your Department on the one-size-fits-all here solution for all and having unrealistic and detrimental for small rural Head Start programs.

I respectfully disagree with the fact that there isn't a demand.
