All4Ed's Charlotte Cahill & Kyle Hartung challenge one of the most persistent narratives in pathways work. For years, we’ve heard that credentials are the fast, equitable route to good jobs—and bachelor’s degrees are too risky. The data tells a different story.

Congress held a hearing today framing Plyler v. Doe as a problem. We submitted a statement signed by 100+ organizations making the case that it is a foundation. Educating every child is not a burden. It is an investment. #ProtectPlyler 🔗 bit.ly/3NIhFy8
