Republicans’ Actions Speak Louder than Words 2

Republicans are leaving kids and students behind.

How?

Drastically underfunding schools: Republicans are providing less than a 1% increase in funding for schools in their budget. For every $1 they want to give to schools they are handing out $15 in tax giveaways. 

Laying off teachers: School officials across the state have said teacher layoffs and budget cuts are guaranteed if Republicans succeed in underfunding schools. 

Refusing to invest in youngest learners: Republicans provide very little investment in early learning. Thousands of 4-year-olds across Minnesota will lack access to a quality early education.

Increasing tuition for college students: Republicans underfund higher education, meaning tuition increases are coming for more than 40,000 college students.
