Our children’s future

When we get past this crisis, if we’re serious about making sure every child can pursue their dreams regardless of what they look like or where they’re from, let’s get serious about doing what works. Studies show real learning can’t happen when kids don’t have safe and stable housing, or arrive hungry or stressed; so, let’s make sure those who need it have healthy meals, support, and trusted counselors. Teachers can’t give individual attention in packed classrooms; so, let’s fund schools so small class sizes foster stronger relationships. We know our schools can’t do any of this unless we make them a top priority, so we’re committed to fully funding our public schools so they have the resources they need to deliver the education all of our children deserve.

I will work with Democrats and Republicans to champion fully-funding public education from affordable childcare and public pre-K through job training and higher education so all Minnesotans can reach their full potential.
