On Education: Dollars to the Classroom bill: send 95 cents of every dollar

My colleague Joe Pitts of Pennsylvania has a "Dollars to the Classroom" bill that would require 95 cents of every federal education dollar to go to the classroom, not the bureaucracy and the special interests. This is a commonsense, twenty-first-century approach to education that would provide immediate benefits to our children. But, I believe we should go further. We can and should so the same with federal spending on transportation, housing, and other needs best left to the states and communities.
