Foxx to Hold First Committee Hearing on Education – Tomorrow at 10:15 A.M.

Tomorrow at 10:15 a.m., the Education and the Workforce Committee will hold its first hearing, titled “American Education in Crisis,” which will discuss the state of K-12 and postsecondary education. 

“Our education system should work for students—not the other way around,” said Chairwoman Foxx. “Our K-12 education system should promote education freedom, protect parental rights, and provide concrete solutions to address learning loss. Sadly, it’s not just our K-12 system that is failing families. Colleges and universities aren’t being held accountable for poor outcomes, staggeringly high prices, and failing to prepare students for the workforce. One-party Democrat rule exacerbated each of these problems, but Republicans are ready to get to work.”
