Parents, along with local teachers, principals, and school boards, know best how to spend our education tax dollars. When it comes right down to it, I trust the people in Washington Parish to make decisions regarding their children's education far more than I trust the bureaucrats in Washington, DC. That's why I supported President Bush's education reform package. This legislation is shifting much more education decision-making and money back home. Some of my other efforts to improve our schools include: - Visiting dozens of schools and hosting regular education forums throughout Louisiana.
- Authoring legislation to fully fund the federal special education commitment.
- Introducing legislation to allow schools to properly discipline special education students who bring weapons or drugs to school.
- Co-sponsoring a $1,000 per child education tax credit.
- Funding a $1.3 million statewide initiative to improve technology in the classroom and prepare our children for 21st Century jobs.
