On the recordSeptember 7, 2016
First introduced in 2004, the bill we consider today represents many years of hard work to elevate the importance of global education, bipartisan compromise, and the support of over 30 nonprofit and advocacy organizations, including RESULTS, the Basic Education Coalition, the Global Campaign for Education, the Global Poverty Project, the Malala Fund, and many other vital partners. So, in closing, I want to thank, again, Chairman Royce, Ranking Member Engel, and their hardworking staffs for their diligent efforts to bring the Education for All Act before the House today. I urge immediate passage.
