Statement of MEA President Paula Herbart on Gov. Whitmer’s State of the State Address
As educators, we work to move America forward by fighting to ensure every child has equal access to high-quality public education. Hillary Clinton has dedicated her life to that same mission.
It started with her first job out of law school — instead of heading to a corporate firm, she worked at the Children’s Defense Fund, fighting to remove barriers preventing children with disabilities from going to school.
In her acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention, she vowed to work for a future where “you can get a good job and send your kids to a good school no matter what zip code you live in.” From her work to champion universal early childhood education to her plans to make college tuition free for low- and middle-income families, Clinton has stood on the side of students and education.
