Here are letters written by the nonprofit, nonpartisan Committee for Education Funding, a coalition of some 115 national education groups, and sent to the leaders of the House and Senate education committees. They detail funding problems the committee has identified in both pieces of legislation, and included is a list of programs that would be affected if the legislation was approved as is.
The Committee for Education Funding was founded in 1969 with a mission to advocate for adequate federal financial support for the country’s public education system. A list of its broad array of members — which includes universities, education advocacy groups, professional education organizations and more – is at the end of this post.
