        This is a public servant. A great example of someone who cares for American children. We need more representatives who care for Americans

        @SenJohnKennedy has literally done nothing for the state of LA. He woule be better going to teach than in the US Senate.

        If he thinks substituting a couple times a year qualifies him to legislate educational policy, then he's delusional. They need ed. experts.

        Many states don't even require teacher's credential to substitute. Substitutes don't know what it means to have to plan a curriculum.

        As good intentioned as it may be, doing an "Undercover Boss"-type of substitute teaching does not make one an education policy expert.

        Best recommendation? Put credentialed educators as leads in educational policy, solicit feedback from teachers, teaching colleges, etc.

        More than anything, eject Betsy DeVos as DOE chair. @JohnKennedyLA: If you care about education, eject DeVos. Never should have confirmed.

        Agree or disagree with his political views but this is something congress should do to get a better understanding of the people. Kudos!!

        Considering he voted for Betsy Devos, this is total crap. He could care less about our children's education. #BetsyIsNotYourChildsFriend

        You're probably right. As a former teacher, I do think someone going into classrooms is the only way to understand ed. Imperfect, yes.

        Yes, it is, BUT, don't kid yourselves the UNION is the problem, not the solution. The left wing indoctrinates our children, and has to stop.
