Joe Lieberman on Education
In the past few weeks, we’ve looked at Democrats and Republicans. This week we’ll look at Joe Lieberman from Connecticut. Once a Democrat and now an Independent, Senator Lieberman is a talked about choice for a Republican Vice Presidential candidate.
In 2007, Senator Lieberman introduced a bipartisan education bill with Senators Reid and McConnell that was designed to keep America competitive in the global marketplace. It passed by a large majority and was signed into law by President Bush. It was part of Senator Lieberman’s longstanding commitment to science and technology education.
Senator Lieberman was a strong supporter of No Child Left Behind in 2001. Last year, he introduced the All Students Can Achieve Act of 2007 along with Senators Landrieu and Coleman.
He is a strong supporter of instructional technology, higher education and, charter schools.
