Take Action
Oppose the Republican budget resolution
Most Americans believe every student deserves opportunity, resources, and support to reach their full potential no matter where they live, the color of their skin, or how much their family earns.
Federal funding for our public schools helps fill in the gap where state and local funding sometimes falls short. It helps:
- Hire more educators to lower class sizes
- Give extra support for students with ADHD, dyslexia, and other disabilities
- Feed hungry students so they can learn
- Lower the out-of-pocket cost for career technical programs and 2- and 4-year colleges.
Medicaid not only helps 38 million children access health care, it also helps pay for school-based services that benefit the entire student population—including nurses, psychologists, and audiologists.
But some politicians in Congress, led by Elon Musk and his billionaire friends, want to raid the U.S. Department of Education and Medicaid to fund their tax cuts.
They also want to allow states to turn federal support into private school vouchers, without any strings attached.
Tell your representatives in Congress to oppose the Republican budget resolution that would take federal funding away from our public schools and Medicaid.
