Education

Reality? Policies have made higher education simply cost too much. Idaho has so many opportunities to which some are being used wisely, others, not so much. Every individual learns at different paces with different goals and achievements. Union apprenticeships fall right off the table with our “Right to Work” laws. As well as any meaningful long term pension opportunities. I want to expand these educational opportunities, even in our most rural areas of Idaho. Whether it be a college degree, vocational education, on the job, hands on experiences, technical education to apprenticeships. We are missing the mark and missing opportunities, relocating our best talent to where retirement goals can be met and exceeded. Idaho ranks #47 in education. This is a dismal failure. Policies and legislation need to be introduced to make these changes possible. Our children and top of the class leaders should not be forced out by means of a livable wage, and retirement options, no housing options and an over-crowded market. I want to introduce real lasting change and a make a difference in our national standing. This will take cooperation from both sides of the isle. The degrees I hold so valuable can be put to work directly for you – the people of Idaho.
