In particular. But all of you to the hearing, as we are galloping toward the need to the act. Cities and localities are looking to us to see what we are to do. I met with a group this morning and congress. It is in the most difficult we have had to do. The issues havent waited for congress to catch up on revenue. After and in the using other methods. To get rid of congestion and to bring us into the 21st century. On transportation. In todays hearing, we will look at some of those questions. The nuances of federal towing policy and congestion pricing. Off technology solutions. To address congestions or congestion and many other Transportation Needs today. While congress failed to solve the revenue question, is negatively attacked and affected the constituents as never before. Not to mention, the quality of air we breathe and failure to deal with Climate Change which was not even discussed at the time of the last reauthorization, to indicate just how far time has moved and how much congr

Perspective as a parent to t. K. Alums at alvarado. With as many as 22 4 year olds and one teacher, its critical that teachers have support. From our experience, i absolutely agree with the teachers recommendation. When we began our t. K. Journey, one of my twins, our daughter, was easily writing letters, and while the other, my son, needed significant coaching and encouragement of feeling behind and he could not do it. It would have been impossible to meet the needs of 22 students in that classroom with only one adult. The proposal to staff all t. K. Classrooms with a dedicated paraprofessional for the full year has several benefits. It ensure the t. K. Teachers in meeting this complex range of academic and social needs. Second, providing fulltime resources also fosters equitiable relationships claal classrooms, and finally, the proposal also provides staffing consistency that enables t. K. Teachers to develop relationships with another adult vested in the childrens transition. Thank
