1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 The second of two interviews with different perspectives on the same hot topic: education in America. Should we keep or quash the Department of Education? Today we speak with Erika Donalds, Chair of the&amp;nbsp;America First Policy Institute’s Center for Education Opportunity&amp;nbsp;Erika believes free market principles and competition will create better outcomes in education over what she describes as the federal overreach currently from the Dept. of Education.&amp;nbsp; Our previous guest, former Sec. of Education under the Obama Administration, Arne Duncan, presents a different point-of-view; he believes federal oversight will assure accountability and best outcomes for parents and students.
