Congressman Mike Castle is arguing that there's a lot of common ground in education. Education politics aren't so much about Republicans and Democrats but about the NEA. He wasn't thrilled about what he saw in the stimulus bill, but he's waiting to see what the Administration has to propose in terms of other pieces of legislation.
Senator Alexander also??likes to look for places where we can work together. He really disagrees with adding $40 billion for education for "more of the same." And really disagrees about cancelling the DC voucher program. But we can work together on charter schools, higher education, and other issues, he says.
