Supporting Teachers and School Leaders

Committee Democrats are committed to advancing policies to help states invest in the people who commit their lives to helping students reach their full potential.

The single most important factor in determining children's success in school is the quality of their teachers. We ask our teachers to perform miracles every day in under-funded and over-crowded schools. To produce a highly competitive and innovative workforce tomorrow, we must attract the best-qualified teachers to our classrooms. 

Key Legislation:
