Ley: We need more educational investment from the state

Posted

Providing quality educational opportunity will be a key focus of my work as a Councilor. The research is unequivocal: education investments deliver invaluable community returns. 

Sufficient, responsible education funding ensures a clear path to individual success and builds a vibrant environment. Providing the necessary funding is not easy, and the town should not bear this financial burden on its own.

That is why I will work with our state legislators to improve the financial well-being of our schools cooperatively. I have the experience to get this done. Two years ago, I successfully led the charge to pass needed legislation to protect higher education research.

That is the type of energy and persistence you can expect from me as a councilor.
