Joe Biden unveils an education platform that boosts funding for schools in low-income districts
Houston Former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign unveiled a set of education policy proposals Tuesday that would increase funding for schools in low-income areas, help teachers pay off student debt and double the number of health professionals working in schools.
Biden's campaign released his education platform just before Biden and his wife, Jill Biden -- a longtime high school and community college teacher who has a doctorate degree in education leadership -- began a town hall hosted by the American Federation of Teachers in Houston. "Vice President Joe Biden was our north star in the last administration," federation President Randi Weingarten said as she introduced him.
