"Mr. Secretary, the President's budget calls for major new investments in our Nation's public, elementary, and secondary schools, totaling $66 billion."

"I always say a budget is a reflection of your values. And this budget shows President Biden understands the money we spend on schools, students, and public education is an investment in our future."

"We cannot continue under-investing in education and think that we are going to continue to produce students that are going to lead the world."

"I have spoken to people in communities across my home state of Washington who have raised really serious concerns about the impact this pandemic has had on housing security."
