Education

Every child—no matter where they may live—deserves a quality education. Dan believes investing in education, including early education, K-12 and higher education, must be a priority because it will mean that Michigan remains competitive in a global economy. Ensuring that our children have the opportunity to go to college or get a technical certificate will mean that our state and country will have a well-trained workforce to attract the high-skilled, high-paying jobs of the twenty-first century.

In Congress, Dan has introduced a comprehensive package of bills to help address a lack of positive opportunities for our children. His legislation invests in after school programs in communities like Flint, Saginaw and Bay City. Providing a safe after school space and a summer job will help to provide opportunity for our kids in mid-Michigan. Dan’s legislation would also allow schools greater flexibility in offering various extracurricular activities that align with a child’s school curriculum like physical fitness, art, music and STEM education.

Thank You!
