Seize Freedom, by Rep. Thad McCotter: on Education


Thad McCotter: Reverse federal discrimination against charters & homeschool

Our educational system has provided preceding generations of Americans with the tools to pursue and attain their aspirations. More than ever, students need a broad education, not a narrow indoctrination. Parents must fulfill their primary role in a child's moral education, and teachers must fulfill their primary role in a child's educational development. Federal bureaucrats must not usurp or impair the roles of parents and teachers. Consequently, we must reverse the increasing federal control over education, including any attempts to discriminate against charter schools and home schooling. Our children must be grounded in academic fundamentals. And, most importantly, our children should be imbued with a lifelong love of learning.
