"Madam Secretary, last year you came before us in answer to my question about a proposed budget cut to the Student Support and Academic Enrichment grants, under ESSA."

"You believe, the Commission believes, headed by you, that the guidance resulted in teachers and schools not really carrying out discipline because they were afraid of Federal action."

"In your words, the guidance was, quote, 'well meaning' to address the fact that black boys are three times more likely to be suspended and black girls are six times as likely to be suspended."

"I hope you will reconsider what you are doing here with these cuts to Medicaid, that you are taking the most effective way we have that millions of Americans rely on to get treatment."
