Take Action: The Education For All Act
Share
Yesterday, Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Gordon Smith (R-OR) and Representatives Nita Lowey (D-NY) and Spencer Bachus (R-AL) stepped forward to introduce the “Education for All Act.”
Education raises incomes, reduces infant mortality, slows the spread of HIV-AIDS, and is key to lifting millions out of poverty, yet today 77 million children around the world don’t attend school because neither their families nor their governments have the resources necessary to provide them with a basic education.
The Education For All Act would improve facilities, train teachers, provide lunch programs and empower those countries placing a priority on education.

Please support the Education for All Act introduced by Senators Hillary Clinton (D-NY) and Gordon Smith (R-OR) and Representatives Nita Lowey (D-NY) and Spencer Bachus (R-AL).

Please consider ” College Education for all in the United States.” This is my focus. We do not have to use Tax dollars. We can create ways to restructure Government spending and give Tax credits for Corporations and Companies to sponser kids, work-study, etc. There are so many ways to send kids to College and take the Burden off the Tax payer. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX.
I believe Education is the REAL KEY to economic stimulus in the UNITED STATES! Thank you,
