WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) joined U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC) in a resolution to celebrate National Charter Schools Week. Sen. Tuberville has helped introduce this resolution every Congress he has served in. “ Our kids are the most precious resource we have,” said Sen. Tuberville. “ We don’t need a top-down approach to education. School choice empowers parents, not the government, to make choices about their children’s educational futures. I’m proud of Alabama’s 18 public charter schools, which are providing a high-quality education and producing great results.” Sens. Tuberville and Scott were joined by Sens.
