How important is it that our lawmakers elected this year in Georgia work to improve K-12 education in the state?
80% Extremely/Very
17% Somewhat/Not
The work is not done yet. @_GA_CAN stands ready to work with willing lawmakers to improve education for our students.
Georgia Republicans are sending a strong message: parents want the freedom to choose the best education for their children. With 89% support, it’s clear education freedom continues to be a winning issue for families and voters alike.
