As a member of the U.S. House of Representatives and as a former college professor, I'm committed to the education of our children and young people. I am also keenly interested in adult education programs which help to empower people in the workforce and which protect America's leading edge in an increasingly global economy.

Here in Michigan's 3rd District, I believe we have unprecedented educational opportunities available in our classrooms, our workplaces, our public libraries, and our homes. Many of these opportunities are made possible by cutting edge information technology and the Internet.
