Go here to take this week's survey question: https://tsongas.house.gov/survey-question

 


 

What part of the immigration reform debate do you think is the most important?

 
Border Security 24%
Path to citizenship 10%
Crackdown on employers hiring undocumented workers 9%
Reform worker visa programs like those for seasonal, high-tech, and agricultural workers 3%
We need a comprehensive approach to immigration reform that includes all of the above 54%

 


What should Congress do about student loan rates?

 
Temporarily freeze student loan interest rates at 3.4% 37%
Enact comprehensive student loan reform 46%
Do nothing - allow interest rates to double to 6.8% 3.5%
Recalculate rates every year based on market rates, which could go lower or higher than 6.8% 13.5%

  


Should Congress amend the No Child Left Behind Act?

Yes, the law is fundamentally flawed, therefore Congress should reverse it. 33%

Yes, although based on a strong premise, changes should create a broader approach to education that does not solely focus on standardized test scores.

64%

No, the act has improved public education.
