"Thank you, Chairman Rokita, for holding this hearing on this very important topic this morning."
"Education research and student data privacy are topics important to my constituents and me."
"First, we value accuracy on the committee."
"I wanted to give you the chance to either retract that, because it is illegal under the Plyler precedent to collect, no less include it in a State database, immigration."
"In my district, many teachers feel they're required to do more and more year after year."
"We need the research to tell us, you know, what works and what doesn't work, and, you know, redistribute to things that do work the things that don't."
"supporting privacy is paramount to our work, along with supporting education data research."
"the Every Student Succeeds Act contains key civil rights provisions that will help ensure that every student receives a great education."
"Using reliable, de-identified, protected data is a key part of identifying what works and what doesn't work."
"Bicameral College Act"
"One thing is certain; our data infrastructure has not evolved with the changing student demographics and it is simply not equipped to do so."
"Last week Mr. Mitchell and myself introduced the College Transparency Act, which would provide very important data about how our institutions of higher education are performing."
