On the recordApril 30, 1997
I would. I have been very interested in education myself as a mother of six children, as a member of the Kentucky State legislature, on the education and the Committee on Appropriations. I have had a long-standing involvement with the education. Kentucky had the courage and worked very hard in 1990, enacted in fact one of the largest taxes in their history in order to fund their schools. It is often pointed to as the example of school reform that we ought to look to on the Federal level.
