No one said eliminate the budget. We said eliminate the bureaucracy.
If you support eliminating the Department of Education, you do not support our students. Period. @USEDgov provides funding for: ✅Students w/ disabilities ✅Rural students ✅Programs that make college affordable This would be bad for students, and bad for America.
Thank you, @SenEricSchmitt, for helping secure this important WIN for students and families! Between expanded K-12 options with 529s and the new federal tax credit for scholarships, students will have more Education Freedom than ever before!
The Big Beautiful Bill is a WIN for families. My provision to double the 529 program investment cap—from $10,000 to $20,000—was included in the bill. This historic investment will promote greater educational freedom and empower parents to invest more in the education of their…
Exactly right
.@SenTedCruz is right - expanded school choice is one of the biggest wins in the One Big Beautiful Bill. Proud to work with him to give families the freedom to choose the best education for their kids. dailysignal.com/2025/07/18/ove…
School choice is the way, indeed, @GovStitt!
We spent too long with a failing education system that was hurting our kids. So we unleashed the largest Education Freedom movement in the nation. Now, one in four students are benefiting, and parents are in the driver’s seat. School choice is the way! ocpathink.org/post/independe…
Thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill, we’re on the path to permanent universal school choice for the first time in our nation’s history. This is how we make American education the best in the world.
Millions of Americans will benefit from the blessing of school choice because of the historic Big, Beautiful Bill!
The One Big Beautiful Bill is a promise kept: school choice for states that care about their kids and choose to opt in. Every child deserves access to a world-class education, no matter their zip code. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to put students first, restore…
The House has passed the One Big, Beautiful Bill, containing my Educational Choice for Children Act! My provision helps families who feel trapped in a failing school afford to send their child to a school that’s right for them. It's about giving parents choice and kids a…
Education savings account will be an option for every state! A major win for students and families!
The One Big Beautiful Bill makes a historic investment in families:
Today, the DC media establishment learned government schools put their interests, not students' interests, first. Welcome to the education freedom movement!
A very wild story from @axios. I cannot understand this for the life of me. Not sure how this puts kids first. And furthermore why families would stay in the District with these kinds of policies.
A striking argument for school choice
Just wild from @axios: @MayorBowser and DCPS are suddenly, without warning forcing dozens of kids to skip kindergarten and go straight to first grade And they’re calling CPS on parents who kept their kids in pre-K an extra year (??!!)
Thank you, @SenTedCruz, for never wavering in your support for ALL of America's students!
My school choice tax credit provision will unleash billions of dollars for kids to attend the K-12 school of their choice. Sadly, every Democrat will oppose this. But Dr. King’s dream will take a major step forward tonight.
