Today NEA launched NEA Today Action. We’ve created this new Web site at a time when we expect education reform to begin to move to the forefront of the national agenda. The Elementary and Secondary Education Act is up for reauthorization, and the Obama Administration is fully engaged in the Race to the Top and School Improvement Grants.
We invited Education Secretary Arne Duncan and the leaders of the Congressional education committees — Democrats and Republicans — to share their vision for federal education policy. We also reached out to a governor for perspective from the state level.
But this conversation is not complete without you! So check out the site. Consider what the policymakers have to say, then let us know what you have to say. NEA has opened up the channels of communication. Now’s the time to talk back and let decision makers know what you think.
I want to hear from you!
