Pillar 15 of 17Education for All
Cancel student debt. Make public colleges and trade schools tuition-free.
Education is a public good, not a commodity. Saddling an entire generation with crushing debt stifles economic growth and opportunity. We must invest in our students from pre-K to Ph.D.
The Sacks Agenda
- Cancel all federally held student loan debt by legislative action.
- Make public colleges, universities, and trade schools tuition-free for all.
- Triple Title I funding to ensure schools in low-income areas have the same resources as those in wealthy suburbs.
- Raise teacher pay to a minimum of $60,000/year nationally.
- End the school-to-prison pipeline by replacing police in schools with counselors and social workers.
