Ray Lesniak on Education

 

 


Invest in education, for the future of our society

Senator Lesniak support President Obama's plan to cap loan payments after graduation at 10% of take home income. "With the high cost of college, most students graduate with loans that are difficult to repay. President Obama's plan will make these payments, based on income, more manageable and give student graduates a better opportunity to move forward with their lives," explained Senator Lesniak.

Senator Lesniak also supports a $750 million bond authorization to help build and renovate campus facilities. "Investing in education, primary, secondary and higher education, is the best investment any government or family can make. For the future of our society and our children, we must work together to advance education opportunities. Making repayment of college loans more affordable, and improving classrooms, labs, & other college facilities will help families send off their children to college and help colleges provide a better quality of education for their students," said Senator Lesniak
