The United States education system hasn’t kept up with the needs of the American people, and it’s time for a new vision that prepares the next generation for real success. Every student deserves access to high-quality education and opportunities that help them thrive both in school and in life after graduation. That means providing generational funding for schools so students can gain certifications and real-world experiencein different fields, giving them the skills and knowledge they need to enter the workforce with confidence. Education should equip young people to pursue their goals, whether that means college, vocational training, or other career paths.

It also means creating universal student loan forgiveness programsto eliminate existing student debt and investing in public colleges and universities to lower tuition costs. Making community college free for everyoneis another essential step toward ensuring that higher education is accessible, affordable, and a true pathway to opportunity for all students, regardless of their background or income. These investments help build a system that prepares every student to succeed and contributes to a stronger, more equitable society.
