This week, we celebrate National School Choice Week. Every child and family is unique in their own way, and when it comes to learning, it is no different. National School Choice Week shines a bright spotlight on effective educational options for children. At the heart of our American values is the belief that we can all pursue happiness through hard work and dedication on the path to achieve the American Dream. This path starts at a young age, and school choice empowers parents and families to choose the best educational environment for their child, ensuring that the American Dream can become a reality. In the town of Dublin in my district, school choice starts in elementary school where students are encouraged to find their passions early on and are provided with the tools to succeed. And it has worked. Dublin City Schools have a 90 percent graduation rate, with Dublin High School reaching almost 97 percent. As a proud school choice supporter and member of the House Education and Labor Committee, I look forward to continuing my work highlighting the effect of school choice in Georgia and throughout the Nation. ____________________

President Biden's proposed waters of the United States rule is a blatant example of Federal overreach. The rule will lead to further regulatory burdens on our farmers, and it gives unelected bureaucrats more power to dictate how landowners…
