Congress needs to invest, not divest in education ...Middle East

With just days left to fund the government, here’s an easy way House lawmakers could buy themselves time—double down on investing, rather than divesting, in the education of our children. In 1965, as part of the federal government’s War on Poverty, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed into law the Title I program, sending more federal money to public schools with a high percentage of students from low-income families, seeking to compensate for the yawning resource gap in school funding in wealthier as compared to poorer communities. From large, urban districts to smaller, rural ones, Title I has been critical to mitigating the educational inequities associated with concentrated poverty.
