WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) in a resolution to celebrate National Charter Schools Week.
Sen. Tuberville has helped introduce this resolution every Congress he has served in.
“Our kids are the most precious resource we have,” said Sen. Tuberville. “We don’t need a top-down approach to education. School choice empowers parents, not the government, to make choices about their children’s educational futures. I’m proud of Alabama’s 18 public charter schools, which are providing a high-quality education and producing great results.”
Sens. Tuberville and Scott were joined by Sens. Marsha Blackburn (R-TN), Michael Bennet (D-CO), Cory Booker (D-NJ), Katie Britt (R-AL), Bill Cassidy (R-LA), John Cornyn (R-TX), Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Mike Crapo (R-ID), Ted Cruz (R-TX), Maggie Hassen (D-NH), Bill Hagerty (R-TN), John Hickenlooper (D-CO), Jon Husted (R-OH), Ron Johnson (R-WI), James Lankford (R-OK), Rick Scott (R-FL), Roger Wicker (R-MS), and Todd Young (R-IN) in introducing the resolution.
