We're facing a potential national education crisis, with millions of kids, disproportionately the less-wealthy, derailed from basic education benchmarks. Having worked in countries where crisis disrupted education, I think we're underestimating broad impact this can have /1

Would be nice if we had a real Sec of Education instead of one whose legacy is protecting rights of for-profit colleges to defraud lower-income Americans, saying sexual assault on campus shouldn't count, & weakening standards of knowledge taught in school for political reasons /2
