President Obama (Again) Calls for Pre-K Funding for States

Without Congressional support, Obama will depend on new Race to the Top funding for early childhood education and a coalition of influential people to find ideas for further investment.

"And as Congress decides what it’s going to do, I’m going to pull together a coalition of elected officials, business leaders, and philanthropists willing to help more kids access the high-quality pre-K that they need," he said. "It is right for America. We need to get this done."
