AACTE Expresses Support for President Biden’s Budget

By Michael Rose

AACTE expressed its support for President Biden’s fiscal year 2024 budget, which calls for strong investments in education that will help address the critical shortage of educators in our nation’s schools as well as help millions of students achieve their academic dreams. 

The nation faces an unprecedented challenge hiring and retaining well-qualified and diverse educators to lead our classrooms.  This shortage has been exacerbated by the pandemic, stagnant wages, and difficult work environments.  The president’s budget proposal seeks to address many of these challenges.  AACTE urges Congress to fund these priorities at the highest possible levels.
