CHICAGO,
IL – U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (D-IL), a Chief Deputy Whip, issued
the following statement in reaction to Secretary Rod Paige calling the
National Education Association a “terrorist organization.” Below is Schakowsky’s
statement:
“President
Bush must fire Secretary Paige and replace him with someone who can tell
the difference between a teacher and a terrorist. On his way out
of town, Secretary Paige owes the teachers, students, and parents an apology.
“Every
day Paige continues to serve as the top educator is an insult to the millions
of teachers who have dedicated their lives to students across the country.
“It’s
time for President Bush to leave Secretary Paige behind.” |
