education

 Since teachers are the backbone of education, Mia strongly supports teachers unions and collective bargaining. 

We need to set the federal minimum salary for teachers to be $60,000 so that we entice students of all disciplines to want to be teachers.

Teachers need to be protected by a collective bargaining agreement to ensure they're skilled, can reach the goals of our system, and have the tools to succeed. 

We need universal pre-K so we can catch up with the rest of the world while also allowing parents a safe place to send younger children without paying 1000’s of dollars a month. 

Mia will fight for more education funding for schools so that all of our children receive equal and high quality education.

These schools ultimately are paid for by the taxpayer with huge levels of waste and overhead. They, on average, leave students less ready for the world that public education.
