Education & Opportunity

Government’s role is to encourage self-responsibility and bolster opportunity for all Americans. It’s important that our children are taught these lessons at an early age. Florida parents know better than the federal government what strategies will help our students to learn and succeed. We support school choice, apprenticeship programs and innovative initiatives to give everyone a chance to pursue the American Dream.
