Arne Duncan: “If we are serious about closing the achievement gap, we have to close what I call the opportunity gap.”

Trump has broken that department. He's broken FSA, he's broken the Department of Education. And if something goes wrong, I desperately hope it doesn't happen. But if something goes wrong this fall with young people going back to college…

You can lie to parents about a lot of things, but if you start taking away opportunities from their children, you better watch out.

You can never say what Trump won't do. I hope he's telling the truth, that they won't touch those funds, but you honestly never know with him.

The absence of leadership at the federal level has had a devastating impact on kids' education in the spring, and now going into the fall and that hasn't changed.
