Hi John,
It's time to make quality, public education North Carolina's top priority. According to our state constitution, "the people have a right to the privilege of education, and it is the duty of the State to guard and maintain that right." To do that, we must treat our teachers like professionals.
Here’s my Education Agenda:
- Support public educators’ agenda to fully fund school guidance counselors, psychologists, nurses, social workers and librarians to the national recommended level
- Raise teacher pay with a 5% across the board pay increase and commit to an ongoing effort to raise teacher pay in our state
- Ensure students and their hard working parents - small business owners and tradesmen - have access to affordable, quality healthcare through Medicaid Expansion
- Fully restore pay increases for public school employees with advanced degrees
- Help ensure all school employees can earn a living wage by supporting a $15 per hour minimum wage
- Reinstate retirement benefits for any educator who re-enters the classroom
Our children deserve the absolute best education. To achieve this, we must unite and work together to move North Carolina in the right direction. Are you with me? Click here to sign & support our Education Petition.
