A Note From Betsy
Education is the lifeblood of everything we want America to be. Every American is impacted every day by how our education system has β or has not β risen to meet the unique needs of each studentβ¦ to meet your needs, as a student, a parent, a teacher, a family member, an employer, or a proud citizen of this remarkable land.
Fighting for freedom in education is my lifeβs work. It was the honor of my life to serve as the 11th United States Secretary of Education. While the four years I spent in Washington got a lot of attention, Iβve spent nearly forty fighting for kids, their families, and a better education ecosystem. And that fight continues today. Thatβs why Iβm so glad youβre here to learn more and get involved.
If we fix education, we fix America. It really is that simple.
I hope youβll join me in the fight to bring education freedom to every kid in America. After all, they represent 100% of our future.

Hostages No More β The Fight for Education Freedom and the Future of the American Child
For too long, students have been held hostage by an outdated school system thatβs focused on everything but children. We can change that.
Hostages No More tells the story of my fight for groundbreaking reforms to American education, but more importantly, itβs about our shared goal to free Americaβs children from an education system that continues to fail them. The school union bosses and their politician and media allies berate everyone who criticizes them, but parents are done being given excuses about why their kids arenβt learning and why theyβre being force-fed poisonous curriculum.
I’ve been fighting alongside families for nearly 40 years, and the momentum demand for school choice is stronger than ever. This parent uprising will not stop until every family has education freedom. I hope this book will encourage you to join the fight for our children and our future.
Democrats ditched President Joe Biden out of cold electoral necessity. They should think about doing the same with Randi Weingarten.

When you get below 50% in school, it's a F. And that's exactly what Americans are giving the government schools. It's little wonder why: 70% of 4th graders can't read at grade level.
Meanwhile, three-quarters of Democrats AND Republicans are demanding education freedom. ... See MoreSee Less

You had your chance and all you did was leave a mess with your evangelical stance for education.

It's not hard to stand up for women and girls, so why won't @Nike just do it?
Adversarial foreign governments have their claws in almost all of America's universities. Suffice it to say: they aren't sending students (and billions in secretive funding) here purely for the education.
