Committee on Education and Labor - U.S. House of Representatives

Teacher Issues

The single most important factor in determining a child's success in school is the quality of his or her teacher. We ask our teachers to perform miracles every day in our under-funded and over-crowded school system. To produce a highly competitive and innovative workforce tomorrow, we must attract the best qualified teachers to our classrooms today.

House Democrats support the TEACH Act, which would double the federal investment in teacher quality to attract the best qualified teachers to American classrooms.
