After our education panel chat, this sweet boy requested to “interview” Byron Donalds about his concerns for students with special needs. Great questions (and answers, of course!) We must ensure EVERY education dollar follows the student, so they can get the services they need!

Education needs to be funded from taxation" "Then get the money back from students through a progressive taxation policy" Victoria Derbyshire, "Funded through taxation? We've got the highest tax levels since WII" Mick Lynch, "The right people aren't paying the right amount of taxes" 👏💯 "We need proper taxation that funds our public services" "Labour needs a proper policy on education and a proper policy on tax, so we can afford our public services"

Every student deserves access to great education. It’s why we’ve backed Bendigo Special Development School with new classrooms and new buildings, supporting the incredible teachers - so that our students can continue to grow and thrive.

Today, the Senate HELP Committee voted to advance bipartisan legislation I introduced with Senators Tim Kaine and Lisa Murkowski to prevent the Department of Education from transferring critical offices responsible for special education and rehabilitative services, postsecondary education, elementary and secondary education, and Indian education to other federal agencies that lack the staff and expertise needed to execute their missions. One of the offices protected by our bill manages programs established under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, known as IDEA, that help meet the educational needs of more than 8 million children with disabilities. Moving this work to the Department of Health and Human Services fundamentally misunderstands the purpose of the Special Education program. It is focused primarily on students’ educational needs, not their health care needs. Every American, regardless of background or disability, deserves access to a quality public education. These important landmark programs must remain at the Department of Education, where Congress specifically placed them and where they belong.

FF-FG-Inds tonight voted against Sinn Féin’s motion to ensure that every child with special needs will have access to adequate education in September 2025. No child should be left without a school place. This is absolutely unacceptable and we will continue to challenge the Government on this issue and ensure that all children have access to the education that they need and deserve.

.Byron Donalds passed the FIRST bill of its kind to allow parents to see what’s inside their children’s school textbooks. But rooting out indoctrination in textbooks is not enough. We must expand education freedom so EVERY parent can choose who they trust with their children eight hours a day.

We came to Springfield to deliver one message: tax the rich and fully fund our schools. Governor Pritzker and the Democratic supermajority must pass legislation to make billionaires pay their fair share so our students get the fully funded education they deserve. Special education teachers. Clinicians. Educators. We are stretched thin and our students are paying the price. No more tax breaks for billionaires. Prioritize our children. Tax the rich to fully fund our schools.

Linda McMahon and Donald Trump are dismantling the Department of Education brick by brick. They even tried to close the office that serves students with special needs. NOT ON OUR WATCH! Don't take resources from our kids and teachers so you can pad the pockets of billionaires.

We make no apology for investing in special education, disability services, childcare and infrastructure. We need to do this for the future of the society and economy.

Over the last decade I’ve helped several hundred families fight to get better support for their children. Right now the special education needs system is not working for too many children, too many parents and too many schools. The Government has tried to fix things but I fear that they have left parents with more questions than answers. Their changes will leave young people to the lottery of the system and place too much burden on teachers. We need to focus on real support for those who need it and start asking why the number of children with special education needs has increased so much in recent years.

Delhi: Spiritual guru Sadhguru says, "The concerns about mental health are growing around the world. In India, every three minutes somebody is committing suicide, particularly among the student community. So we have to look at many things sociologically, our education systems, the way we have structured it, and of course economic and various other aspects because it's among farmers, economic situations are doing it among students, education system is doing it like this..."

One of the biggest challenges in the education freedom movement is balancing government red tape with what students actually need. Education should be built around the child, not bureaucracy. That’s why I’ve made it my life’s mission to reduce unnecessary bureaucracy and ensure EVERY education dollar is parent-directed.

Trump and Musk want to shut down the Department of Education and slash money from our public schools — all to pay for billionaire tax breaks. So we came to the Department of Education to ask questions. They locked the doors on us. Save the Department of Education. Fire Elon Musk.

Chicago’s students deserve smaller class sizes, school librarians, and fully funded special education services, not more cuts to the people and programs they rely on. CTU Vice President Jackson Potter joined Fox 32 News to explain what the recent budget vote means for our school communities and why Illinois must ask the wealthy to pay their fair share to restore critical positions and give every student the support they deserve.

We have to take advantage of our once-in-a-decade opportunity to invest in public education and give every child the opportunity to succeed. I’ll always fight so our schools get the resources they need.

I rise for students, teachers, families, and everyone out there frightened about what’s happening to education. We won’t stand by while they dismantle education, gut civil rights, and attack programs that serve all students, including students with disabilities. In New Mexico, we know that our children are our future and education is the key. Which is why I’m in this fight all the way!
