Congressman Kevin Kiley (R-CA), a former teacher in inner-city Los Angeles and California State Assembly member, joins Freedom to Learn to discuss the need for education freedom options that prioritize student success. We address the impact of prolonged Covid-era school closures and the harm caused by powerful political forces, like teachers unions and the politicians they control. As Chair of the U.S. House Education and Workforce Committee’s K-12 education subcommittee, Rep. Kiley recently chaired a lively hearing highlighting the benefits of expanding education options like charter schools and education savings accounts. He shares his observations from the hearing and counters some of the claims made that day.
