“Cutting bloat” is code for defunding our schools

Image
  Friends, The Trump administration says it’s “cutting bureaucratic bloat” from our education system. But we should call this plan what it is. This is a calculated effort to  defund public education and funnel taxpayer dollars into privatized, unaccountable school systems. If the goal were efficiency, we’d invest in classrooms and educators, reduce administrative burdens without cutting core services, and ensure every child has access to a quality public education. Public schools are the backbone of our democracy, and we must protect them. Educated We Stand exists to stop this agenda where it hurts most — at the ballot box, in school board races, and in communities fighting for strong public schools.
