Political Quotes

“What we are now taking a look at is we are taking a look at a budget that is not going to steal from Social Security. But perhaps one of the most important things about this budget is that we reinvest in education. We reinvest in education in a way that will make an impact for our kids. What we do is we take dollars away from a Washington bureaucracy, and we move the rules and regulations away from the process and target getting dollars back to our children. We get the dollars into the classroom. We get the dollars into a school district where the people who are making the decisions for our kids and for the learning process are the people that know the names of our kids. But more importantly, not only do they know the names of our kids, they also know the needs of our kids. They know the needs of the community and the school district. So what we will get is we will get more effective decision-making, we will get more dollars to the classroom where they actually make a difference.”
