Between salary level and teacher effectiveness. Does anybody want to defend that . There is no relationship between the expenditure of 80 of what we spend and effectiveness of teachers. Randy . I mean what i want of course theres a relationship. I mean, i wont speak for who is an amazing superintendent in des moines, but theres much evidence that there is relationship between the experience of teachers and the stability of schools and frankly part of what were trying to do in schools that are struggling is how do we nurture and secure Great Teachers to stay at those schools. So, obviously, there is both on a macro and a micro way, there are real both correlations here and things like that. I think what my colleague was saying is that the dollarfordollar piece that the that the department is proposing doesnt get you doesnt get you to the equity issues that you have spent your life, senator, fighting for. And you as well. And what im saying is whether the department, you know, ends up wi

I want to focus my remarks on the administrations proposed supplement not supplant regulation. This is a very first opportunity the administration has to write regulations on our new law. And in my view, they earned an f. The reason for that is that the regulation violates the law as implemented since 1970 and seeks to do it in a way that specifically prohibited it in the new law. In writing the new law last Year Congress debated and ultimately c
Congress chose to leave unchanged a provision of culpability.

This would be to violate the law as implemented since 1976 section 1605. The Administration May get an a for cleverness, but untapped for following the line my opinion. The ne
