Future. It comes as new fox new polls reveal what voters think schools should be focused on teaching in the classroom. Im john roberts, welcome to friday and to you. Aishah im Aishah Hasnie in for sandra smith. Voters of all political stripes are finding Common Ground on a couple of key issues. Public schools should teach more about being a good citizen, less about gender identity issues. John parents are protesting over transgender policies which prompted a Court Battle In One State Andout right defiance by a School District in another. Mark meredith joins us with more on all of this. How much are voters do we think focusing on education . John, quite a bit. Seems like this issue has broken up ever since the pandemic. Of course, always Hot Button Issues in politics, but education has played a more prominent role in the daily debate and new fox news polling explains why. Not enough time is spent on what you consider reading, writing, math, science, they say too much time is spent on gender issues, and most concerned too much time is spent on sexual orientation. And some believe its going to energize more voters going forward. What you are seeing is the vast majority of parents, wherever they are in the political spectrum, democrat, republican, want schools to focus on the basics, focus on reading, writing, science, math, civics. Outside d. C. In Fairfax County, the School District plans to ignore new Education Policies out of the state capital, richmond, require use a bathroom with their sex assigned at birth as opposed to the sex they identify with. Decision sets up a political showdown with the states governor, republican glenn youngkin, he campaigned heavily on traditional values in schools. And they say the fairfax Public Policy diverged from the guidance and perpetuate a false notion that the School System knows whats better for the child than the parent. The Fairfax County system is expected to follow the law. We have seen it in virginia and new jersey, a huge fight whether or not parents need to be notified when it comes to transgender issues so. Clearly, not just happening now but piling up before the election. John and virginia, too. Arlington Public Schools are doing it as well, and we will speak with a mom from arlington in the next hour. Then this, the Big Tech Censorship is heating up with fresh subpoenas to the doj and the fbi. Chairman jim jordan says its all going to help uncover how the Biden Administration colluded with big tech to censor free speech. Darrell issa will join us in a moment, but first live to fbn Hillary Vaughn with the latest. Hi, hillary. Hi, aishah. Jim jordan giving the fbi Christopher Wray and Merrick Garland one month from today to turn over these documents that they are looking for. Communications between these agencies and big tech. Jordan saying so far the Justice Department and fbi together have only given them one single document in the request for information and that is a publicly available transcript. Thats not what jordan is looking for. They want to know whats behind the scenes. Saying the First Amendment prohibits, and extent to which doj officials have coerced, pressured, and relied on social media and other Tech Companies censor speech. The department of justice denying they did the sort, saying The Department, including the fbi, does not censor on Social Media Platforms, they protect the platforms and users. The fbi also saying yes, they do Flag Information to social Media Companies but what they do with it is up to them, saying this, when the fbi identifies information that a hostile foreign actor is behind a social media account we share that information with the company. Social Media Companies independently decide what, if any, action to take on their own platforms for their own customers. Now, a source familiar with the back and forth between the fbi, doj, and the Committee Says the fbi and doj for months have been dragging their feet citing ongoing litigation, Security Concerns as to why they are not being more responsive to the request for information, but from the committee perspective, republicans on the Committee Say its not going to cut it. Aishah. John for more on all on this, darrell issa. Do you expect you will get the documents and if you do, what do you expect to learn from them . John, we do expect to get the documents. Quite frankly, we expect to get them after a court battle. Its very clear that they want to run out the clock, that when you sit when you are forced to send a subpoena and you get a publicly available document it really does say we are not going to give you anything without a court fight. So just as we held eric holder in contempt a decade ago, it is very, very likely that chairman jordan is going to have to take the next step, bring contempt, go to court, begin that long, sometimes long process if hes going to get the kind of discovery but its worth doing because it is clear that The Department of justice, cia, state department, and other actors, including Secretary Blinken and others, they have systematically wanted to stifle free speech, they probably want to stifle it since you were known as j. D. Roberts and Rush Limbaugh was still a sacramento deejay, but they are doing it with a vengeance. John i see no need to bring my age into all of this. Here is just your experience, maturity and wisdom, john. John im thinking of that line from Ronald Reagan right now, i dont know how i can turn it back on you. Here is what chairman jordan said in regard to the subpoenas in letters he sent to Merrick Garland and chris wray, the Committee On The Judiciary is conducting oversight of how and the extent to which the Executive Branch has coerced and colluded with companies and others to censor speech. Theres a wide belief the Biden Administration has been colluding with the social Media Companies to restrict content. What do you think has been going on . Well, a good example, john, is that when they talked about they can alert as to foreign actors, well, in some cases it was seated members of congress they are referring to. The national defense, foreign actor defense, and russian collusion and using it here. A legitimacy when they have a real ongoing case and they know its a foreign actor. The interesting thing about that is most of the time when they have that kind of information they do just the opposite. They keep it secret, its part of their investigation to try to, if you will, expand a case. Most of the examples they have given are clearly a bias against free speech that usually involves americans with things the administration doesnt want to hear, whether its on covid or other areas, they have been doing it and of course, saying that they are not doing it that social Media Companies are doing it, once you have the conversation with the power of The Department of justice with a social media company, you cant say you are not influencing them. You clearly are. John here is what the agencies are saying in response. From the doj, The Department, including the fbi, does not censor content on Social Media Platforms. Private companies have the Sole Authority to protect their platform and users. Fbi, we are a Law Enforcement and Intelligence Agency responsible for working with companies in a lawful way to protect our communities from child predators and terrorists as well as hostile Foreign Countries like china, russia and iran, looking to exploit Social Media Platforms to commit crimes or threaten national security. What do you say to that . I say that if they have real evidence of hostile terrorist organizations, child predator, of Course Alerting makes sense. But if they have no evidence and they are simply taking their bias and sending it over, they have to be held accountable and thats what we believe has happened, we have examples and why jim jordan is saying show us the information and well judge because the results have been that they have stifled actual free speech of people they disagree with. It began during the trump administration, came out of the swamp clandestinely, but has really kicked into high gear in the last two plus years under joe biden. John congressman darrell issa, good to catch up with you. Thank you for joining us. Appreciate it. Thanks, john. John see you again soon. Aishah didnt have a comeback for him, did you . John the only thing i thought of saying when i was known by j. D. Roberts, if you came up to a car and touched it the wrong way it would yell at you to get away from the car. Aishah a long time ago. Take a step back john he created that. How he made his money. Aishah look at what the Judiciary Committee has done on this, i think the damage is done when you look at it, the socalled Facebook Files and all the things they were mad about. Some of them were just memes making fun of what was happening. John i mean, all you have to do is look at the hunter laptop, right, some of the covid stuff, you can draw conclusions from that. Aishah hawaiis Attorney General says that she will order an official review to find out how state and local agencies handled the devastating fires with the death toll still rising now. Did years of mismanagement there make this so much worse. John plus, a microsoft executives exwife charged in murder with the conspiracy to kill him. Family left split in two, whats next. Break down the case with a Criminal Defense Attorney next. The mix of emotions of so glad we are here and we are just putting our faith in that this is the right step at the right time and it will work out in the court system. vo ultimate endless shrimp is here with a limited time flavor drop. New crispy dragon shrimp. One of seven endless choices for just 20. Right now, only at red lobster. Welcome to fun dining. Veteran homeowners to combat todays rising prices. Lower your Monthly Payments with the three cs pay down your credit cards, pay off your car loan, consolidate your debt with a va home loan from from newday. We moved out of the city so our little sophie could appreciate nature. But then he got us tmobile home internet. I was just trying to improve our signal, so some of the trees had to go. I mightve taken it a step too far. Chainsaw Revs tree crashes chainsaw continues daughter screams lets pretend for a second that you didnt let down your entire family. What would that reality look like . Well i guess i wouldve gotten us xfinity. And wed have a better view. Do you need mulch . What, we have a ton of mulch. Shot fired, shots fired. Shots fired, shots fired, three officers down, three officers down. John deadly attack on Police Last Month in fargo, north dakota. An officer shooting and killing a gunman who opened fire on officers who were investigating a traffic accident. Officer jake wallin died in the ambush. Two other officers and bystander were injured. Police say the suspects car was loaded with multiple guns and nearly 2,000 rounds of ammunition. Aishah a Stunning Development in the murder of a microsoft executive. Police arresting jared bride dan bridegans exwife, now question is what happens to the two kids. Bridegan says the children have been isolated, and she is pleading with the suspects family to change that. Mark eiglarsh is a Criminal Defense Attorney. Welcome to the show. I want to quickly play what jareds older brother said on americas newsroom earlier reacting to the news and mentions the kids here. Gut wrenching to think how this was planned and executed and again, how selfish this is when you think about the children and that they are robbed of the loving father. Aishah these are 11yearolds, liam and abby, i believe are their names. I would imagine 11yearolds are very aware of whats happening right now. Just in your expertise, mark, what are they going through and what is the best place for them, what kind of a situation would help them cope through this . Well, the most disturbing thing i found, other than the actual murder, was that the grandparents of the kids are keeping them away from their half siblings. Thats reprehensible. All of the kids need to continue to bond together as they were before he was fatally murdered. And i find that to be troubling and i would encourage the mother to go to court and to petition a judge to say whats in the best interest of the kids are for them to be together. Thats whats in their best interest at a time of need like this. Aishah even if she decides not to do that, lets say and her parents dont either, the other set of grandparents, they have some rights here, too. Correct . They are blood relatives, they should be able to at least have visitation rights, if not custody rights. What can they do legally here . Well, they can petition the court. Thats what family court is about. A judge will make a finding whats in the best interest of the kids. We hear that phrase constantly and a judge would sort it out. Grandparents have the right to show love, assuming there is unconditional love for their grandchildren and the kids have a right to be with other kids, especially during this traumatic situation. Aishah they have lost their father and now might lose their mother. Stability is key here. You know, shana claimed her innocence last month to a local Television Station down in florida. We expect that she would plead not guilty here with this indictment. How much would a judge take into account that she is a mother of two very vulnerable kids here when a judge would consider whether or not to give her bail. Interesting. The two different issues. Issue for bail is whether shes a danger to the community and or a risk of flight. The fact shes a mother, well, theres a value there, but shes accused of also committing an act which involved Reckless Disregard for his daughter, 2yearold daughter could have been killed for the actions she set in motion. That far outweighs a region the judge could grant her bond, assuming its proven. Aishah thank you, mark. John Hurricane Hillary Turning to the southwest after strengthening from a Tropical Storm to a category 4 hurricane in less than 48 hours. The latest on its expected path and the Biden Administration announcing plans to build two Carbon Vacuum Plants to capture greenhouse gases. Aishah is it a technology, or is it a costly boondoggle . We will talk about it coming up next. I think both republicans and democrats and most importantly, independent voters now have figured out the transition to green is going to take much longer than originally proposed by any administration.

Aishah Hurricane Hillary<\/a> is strengthening to a category 4 storm as it barrels toward the southwest with winds near 140 miles per hour. Some areas, including military bases, are bracing for Tropical Storm<\/a> conditions and severe flooding as early as tonight. Lets check in now with fox weather meteorologist amy freeze. Hi, amy. Hello. This is a major storm now and it does have impacts for Southern California<\/a>. For the first time in 84 years, we could be looking at near Tropical Storm<\/a> force conditions right on the west coast near san diego. Its very active right now in the pacific and the atlantic but its this storm, hillary, we are talking about, and all eyes are fixated on this. Southern california rarely gets this type of action, and the first time san diegolong beach, we have a Tropical Storm<\/a> watch. Rains will start saturday in advance of the Hurricane Making Landfall<\/a> but its going to create major flood impacts. Hurricane hunters are inside the storm. They will collect a bunch of data, helps us to forecast. Thats why all the alerts are starting to increase. We have the hurricane watch down off of the western side of the baja peninsula, getting close to mexico near the border to california. Those are the alerts that are early. Also in place are flood watches. This is going to be a major storm for Southern California<\/a>. Take it from san diego up to san bernardino, the Tropical Storm<\/a> watch which is rare, never happened before, but look back to the cone. Category 4 storm is not going to hit Southern California<\/a> but whats left of it will be extremely impactful. Maybe we get a sunday landfall somewhere in here possibly off the baja peninsula, or perhaps a Tropical Storm<\/a> near Tropical Storm<\/a> right on the california coast. Its only happened one other time in the last 100 years. Now, if you look at the rainfall totals this is really impressive and problematic. This storm could bring 3 to 5 inches of rainfall widespread, but pockets up to 10 or 12 inches. On the east side of i5, east san diego, 1 to 3 inches, and the west side, mountains, major impacts for palm strings, coachella, through the mountains and we are dealing with it through tuesday. The wind fields should decrease as the storm gets on land. A lot to follow this weekend. We hope you will join us on fox weather. We are always on, its free as well, just plug into your favorite connected tv device and find us there with coverage all weekend long. We hope the folks in Southern California<\/a> are preparing ahead of time. Aishah we will be watching. Thank you for the update. John hawaiis Attorney General<\/a> says she is going to order an independent analysis into the state and local response to the Maui Wildfire<\/a> that has claimed at least 111 lives. Devastation exposing flaws in the fight against Climate Change<\/a> despite it being one of the blueest and most Climate Change<\/a> in the country. So theres growing evidence, bjorn, The Lahaina Tragedy<\/a> was a Disaster Waiting<\/a> to happen. Despite all the talk about Climate Change<\/a>, hawaii was unprepared for this. Here is what christopher wrote in a New York Times<\/a> piece, the list of shortcomings, includes leaving huge areas of land covered in highly flammable invasive grasses, failing to adopt wildfire resistant building standards and shutting down dams, reducing the islands ability to store water. As we said, this was one of the bluest, most climate forward states in the nation. How does this happen . Well, look, it really shows what we should be focusing on. Its always going to burn, but what is crucial is you actually adapt to this. So you just mentioned some of these things. You maybe shouldnt have a lot of grasses that will burn a lot. You should adopt better building codes, not what governor green did, namely put it on hold because he wants cheaper building. And you shouldnt just have 1 exit road because you have better fire breaks and the most important thing, inform people. You should not have a guy that actually decides not to run the alarm because he worries people might misunderstand it. Most people were not informed and this is the crucial bit when you talk about Climate Change<\/a>. When everybody blames climate, a very, very small part of the whole puzzle. You take away responsibility from all these failures and thats, of course, what you really need to focus on if you are going to avoid the next fire. John as you mentioned, Emergency Management<\/a> director of maui did not Sound The Alarm<\/a>s there, the sirens, he said The Reason Why<\/a> was because those were Tsunami Warning<\/a>s and didnt want people going inland as opposed to going either out of town or toward the sea. But he resigned the day after he said that. But brings us back to the point where democrats are quick to Sound The Alarm<\/a> when it comes to Co2 Emissions<\/a> and Climate Change<\/a> but seems to be a disconnect between sounding the alarm of needing green energy and cutting down emissions and dealing with the situation we are currently in. Absolutely, and this really goes to saying who is to blame and what should we learn from this. Again, the same thing happened if you remember back in germany in 2021, a big flood, did not Sound The Alarm<\/a>, most people did not know they had to evacuate. Everybody said oh, its climate, it had very few actual impacts. You have the same thing happen in 2002 in germany. We are not learning as long as we just keep blaming global warming. Global warming is a problem, we should fix it, and fix it smartly, we are helping future people who are affected by future fires as well really badly if we dont focus on the smart things to do. So again, maybe you shouldnt have an alarm system that only sounds like a Tsunami Warning<\/a> if you also want to warn people when its fire. John speaking of doing the smart thing, the Biden Administration<\/a> through the Inflation Reduction Act<\/a> is going to be spending 1. 2 billion on two huge vacuums that will suck up air and then take the Carbon Dioxide<\/a> out of the it and sequester it. Noted Climate Millionaire<\/a> al gore took this on and questioned whether or not it was a big idea. Premise of his argument was this is something that was lobbied for by oil and gas but watch what he said here in a ted talk. So lets just look, this is state of the art. Looks pretty impressive, doesnt it . The back side of one of these machines. I had the same thought. [laughter] they are improving this and the new model serve years from now each of these machines is going to be able to capture 27 seconds worth of annual emissions. Whew that gives them a license to continue producing more and more oil and gas. John he ridiculed the technology and blamed the oil and gas industry, a very polarizing figure, but the pertinent question, is this the best technology to spend our money on . Well, look, theres a lot of potential technologies, a lot of people argue we should go green but of course again, it is not cheaper and functioning right now to use a lot of green technologies. But we should be focusing on getting that price down. Likewise, being able to suck out the co2 from the atmosphere could be a great solution. It is not now. Right now it costs way too much, it costs in the order of 6 to 12 trillion to get rid of all of it. Nobody is going to pony up that kind of money but we should be investigating whether we can make it a lot cheaper. Of course we shouldnt be fun of it like ineffective green technologies. We should focus on can we make it so cheap this is something that india, china, and africa will buy. John all right, always great to get your take on things. Thanks for joining us. Hope you have a nice weekend. The test plant in iceland had an interesting aspect to it. Aishah and congress is jumping into this, and the wildfires, whether we are doing enough for the forests, whether we are not doing preventative burns, big problem in canada, and what happened in new york city.

One of the crooks, black, ski mask and gloves, repeatedly jumping out of the white lexus, smashing the windows of the cars along the street one by one by one, grabbing anything valuable left inside, why you should never ever keep anything outside. Things might be changing in the bay area. We are going to talk about it in the next hour. Things might have hit rock bottom. Last time i was in san francisco, admittedly was last year, we parked in a parking lot, above ground parking lot at like a building because we did not want to leave the car in a ground lot and went out to alcatraz for the afternoon. We came back and there were at least 5 or 6 cars in the open air ground parking lot that had their windows smashed out and everything stolen inside. Not yours. No, we were in a closed parking lot. Thats what you have to do. Buyer beware. Court appearance for the man accused of killing four College Students<\/a> in idaho, Bryan Kohbergers<\/a> attorneys are asking the judge to delay the trial which is currently set for october. Dan springer live in moscow. Has the hearing started yet, dan . Just got word it started about a minute ago, and we are talking about alibi in the hearing, one of the quirks of idaho law it requires defendants to be very specific about their alibi be disclosed prior to the trial and it requires a defendant to say exactly where they were when the crime was committed and who they were with, who can corroborate that location and all kohbergers lawyers said he was out driving around by himself late at night and early in the morning on the night the murders were committed. Six motions argued today, a big one the Defense Motion<\/a> for a stay to delay the trial scheduled to start october 2nd to challenge the grand jury indictment on the grounds the jury was improperly assembled and instructed on the burden of proof. I believe the judge will grant a stay to allow the defense to investigate the grand jury proceeding. I dont think its going to go anywhere, but i do believe the judge is going to grant that motion. I dont believe that either party has enough time from now until october to get all their ducks in a row. The other key issue surrounds dna. Investigative genetic genealogy used by Law Enforcement<\/a> to identify kohberger as a suspect. Dna on a kbar knife sheath. There was no data in the database so they built a family tree. The defense wants full disclosure on how the dna was handled, all the communication between lab workers and the names of every person on the family tree. There is no case law in idaho to direct the judge on how to rule as we have no idea how hes going to rule on this matter. We expect it to be a long hearing, maybe three hours and dont expect the judge to make rulings known today. He usually does that a couple days afterwards. John. John well keep watching it. Dan, thank you. Aishah President Biden<\/a> is crossing the country touting bidenomics. And flash mob robberies, why is the main suspect already out of jail .

Our customers dont do what they do for likes or followers. Their path isnt for the casually curious. And thats what makes it matter the most when they find it.

Benefits. Payroll. Compliance. Trinet. People matter. Folks, its not an accident. Its my economic plan in action. Its bidenomics. As he uses the Talking Points<\/a> we realize the prices are up. Wages are growing faster than inflation. Folks, thats bidenomics. Pay the bills, its harder, and harder. Aishah he is promoting bidenomics, even though voters are not buying it with a majority saying the economy is in very bad shape. Many 2024 candidates are critical of bidens economy but have yet to talk about it. Have not been very clear enough with their own plans and what they are going to do. Bring in bob cusack, editor in chief for the hill. Let me set the stage for folks at home and pull up these polls. A new fox new poll, most important issues for republicans out there and you can see the economy is at 48 , pretty high, second closest is immigration here. And you cant blame folks because when you look at the impact of bidenomics, the next call for here, you see pretty much the price of everything is still up. So, Consumer Prices<\/a> are up 15 , gas prices up 61 . Credit card debt up 33 . People are living paycheck to paycheck, taking money out of their retirement plans, it is not great. So, why, o why, wouldnt a republican candidate going up against biden want to talk about this . And you cant say donald trump is donald trump is part of the issue. What do republicans like to talk about, tax cuts. Trump was able to pass tax cuts and a question whether congress will extend them. At the same time, you can add to that. Yes, lets extend the trump tax cuts and talk about the economy. I am stunned that more republicans are not talking about, we talk to pollsters and they say the same thing, attack the economy and very few are doing it. John i want to bring up this piece of sound from joe biden from the other day when he was marking the First Anniversary<\/a> of the Inflation Reduction Act<\/a>. Here is what he said at the white house, listen here. Or wisconsin, sorry. Call my plan bidenomics, im not sure they meant it in a totally complimentary way at the time, but guess what. Its working. John he says its working. But according to the fox news poll, its not. No, its not. John and The Reason Why<\/a>, put up the graphic we put up here, 52 of people now say that the economy is worse under biden, thats down a little bit from july, 55 said, but still a majority of people are saying the economy is worse, not better. The numbers, if they dont improve, joe biden will not get a second term. I looked up at the beginning of the summer, white house put out a Press Release<\/a> saying bidenomics is working but people dont believe it and thats a big problem and next year whats the big question. First year president s are asked, am i better off under joe biden than i was. John reagan said it. Every president has to deal with that and most people think im worse off, thats a problem. Aishah the debate is coming up fast here, next week. How should these candidates approach this . I feel some folks might think i have to grab a headline, sounds like the former president is not going to show up, but if President Trump<\/a> is not a factor and hes not there, that should be an avenue, right, an opening to be able to talk about the economy. Youve got to connect. Vivek ramaswamy is connecting. Others who are more experienced politicians are still in the single digits, and that includes the former vice president. I think people are not looking for experience so much, they are looking for people quick on their feet, not a scared of sitting down with journalists like us and seen issues with desantis from the getgo, his campaign stumbled out of the gate. Vivek ramaswamy has moved up. Someone will move up. A lot of people will be watching the debate and if they talk about the economy they are going to win some points but they have to connect with voters and desantis has yet to do that. John desantis gets prickly when hes challenged. Vivek ramaswamy the other day when he was approached by the pansexual individual had a nice discussion with them, they shook hands and they both walked away satisfied that they aired their positions. Let me come back to the investment reduction act. Biden is looking at this and selling as part of his bidenomics saying thats The Reason Why<\/a> inflation is coming down, The Reason Why<\/a> real wages, or outpacing inflation, though only in the last couple months its been doing that. But the Associated Press<\/a> wrote about the investment reduction act, yes, inflation is down. No, Inflation Reduction Act<\/a> does not deserve the credit. They quote obamas guy, i dont think of any mechanism would have brought down inflation to date. And another economist, say with pretty strong confidence mostly other factors have brought inflation down. So, why is biden still out selling the Inflation Reduction Act<\/a> as The Reason Why<\/a> inflation is down and why is anybody buying that argument . Well, they have to sell it because they own it, obviously, democrats pushed that across on a partisan basis. Remember, biden also said he doesnt like the name of it. But the Federal Reserve<\/a> has more to do with reducing inflation or spiking it than anything that congress or the administration does. But if you are the president and own the economy, and thats why in a year from now we are going to know probably is bidenomics a Good Campaign<\/a> slogan or a disaster . John Kevin Walling<\/a> said we used the name because we had to sell it. Had to sell it and sometimes it comes back to bite you. Aishah you cant do that. John Like Slapping A Ferrari<\/a> badge on a ford pinto. End if it comes down as it has, it still leaves a mark and people dont forget the rough times. Aishah see if any of the candidates watched this and will take your advice, talking about the economy. We want to know what they are going to do. Thats the number one issue. Thank you for joining us.

John a u. S. Marine who was at the infantry west school at camp pendleton, california was killed during a nighttime training event. It turns them into instructors in combat skills. The students name has not been released. Investigators say, or officials, rather, say an investigation is under way. Aishah schools across the country are struggling mightily as the nations report card reveals Reading Proficiency<\/a> of third graders is at a crisis level. So then why arent those students being held back and what needs to be done to get them up to speed . Lets go to lydia hu, so, why are the third graders in such a crucial situation . Well, aishah, third grade is a critical time to develop Reading Skills<\/a> and if the student cannot read or read well it impacts other subjects like mat and science. Dropouts, 18, 19 years old, did not score at third grade level. If students do not read by third grade they are set back and may not recover. National test scores from last year show only 33 of 4th graders are proficient or higher for reading, thats down from 35 in 2019. And prompting a debate about whether to hold third graders back who dont pass state reading assessments. According to the Education Commission<\/a> of the state, at least 16 states in d. C. Have a required retention policy, meaning students get held back in third grade if they dont read at level. Thats the case in arkansas, which recently adopted this approach and funds literacy coaches. Some states are moving in the opposite direction. Michigan decided to end its required retention of third graders, meaning they pass on to the 4th grade no matter what. Concerns about disproportionate impact on their students there in the state. The debate is unfolding, back to you. Aishah lydia, thanks. John at this hour, we are live from camp david where the president plans to take the podium alongside the leaders of south korea and japan.
