Sharpening critique of public schools, House Republicans seek deep education cuts
www.chalkbeat.org
The proposal, part of a broader package of GOP-supported spending reductions, would cut Title I spending for low-income schools by 80%. It’s another sign that Republicans are increasingly frustrated with how public schools are funded, what they teach, and their response to COVID.

Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives want to dramatically slash funding for Title I, the long-running federal program that sends money to schools based on the number of children from low-income families that they serve.

A bill advanced by a Republican-controlled House subcommittee on Friday seeks to cut Title I grants by 80% or nearly $15 billion.

Republicans just keep writing the Democrat talking points for the next election.

      Oh please. Spare me your high horse. I’m a lifelong Democrat, and no one can snatch defeat from the jaws of victory like the DNC. We could be using all the nefarious shit the GOP does against them at every turn, but what do we do?

      Consistently take the softboy high route, because gods forbid we oFfEnD aNyOnE.
