Education Funding

Setting the Record Straight on Education Spending Myths

 

Simply spending more money is not the answer to the problems facing America’s schools.  High standards, accountability for results, and increased parental involvement are all essential to improving education and ensuring no child in America is left behind.

 

Research and opinion polls consistently show Americans believe the most important factors in improving America’s schools are high standards and accountability for results – not spending.  Members of the House Education & the Workforce Committee have pledged to work with the President to provide responsible spending increases for education amid the twin challenges of war and economic uncertainty.
