The Stars and Stripes represent the courage of those who built this nation, the sacrifices of those who defended it, and the freedoms that unite us all.
As America approaches its 250th birthday, we proudly salute the red, white, and blue.

Over half of college students can’t answer basic civics questions, from the Bill of Rights to the 3 branches of government.
Only 41% of 18–29 yr olds say they’re proud to be American.
As America turns 250, let’s recommit to sharing our nation's story with the next generation.

.@EDSecMcMahon and her team at @usedgov are doing great work! @SenateGOP, let's ensure the waste, fraud, and abuse they have rooted out of our student aid programs are gone for good and get this bill on President Trump's desk!
We are proud to see the House pass
@RepBurgessOwens' No Aid for Ghost Students Act, cementing our ongoing efforts to eliminate fraud, waste, and abuse from the federal student aid programs.

Today’s students deserve an education that prepares them for America’s future.
Workforce Pell does just that by allowing students to use federal student aid for workforce training programs.

When states lead, kids succeed.
That’s why we are taking critical steps to return education to the states by slashing red tape and empowering state leaders to have more discretion over their education dollars.

We’re working closely with @EDSecMcMahon and @usedgov to train and skill American Workers so they can earn a living and support their families in record-setting time.
Another perfect pathway for this: Registered Apprenticeships!
For every 5 skilled trades workers who retire, only 2 replace them — putting us on track for a 2.1 million shortfall by 2030.
The good news: starting July 1, under our Workforce Pell program, Americans can gain new skills to earn family-sustaining wages in months, not years.
