@BetsyDeVosED We can spend billions to improve test scores, but until we improve the physical buildings, get our students food, clean water, and stable homes the test scores won’t come. And I’d rather have a healthy kid than a test score.
Education creates career opportunities. Career opportunities increase income. Increased income reduces crime. Reduced crime results in less incarceration. Less incarceration strengthens the economy. A strengthened economy improves funding to core services like public education.
Christians should be aware of candidates who call themselves progressives. Progressive is more often a way of describing someone who favors a more just world, where the poor are helped, as Jesus asked us to do; and where those on the margins are given special care, as Jesus did. x.com/franklin_graha…
Christians should be aware of candidates who call themselves progressive. Progressive is generally just a code word for someone who leans toward socialism, who does not believe in God, & who will likely vote against Godly principles that are so important to our nation. 2/2
