NJ Dems & their teachers union allies failed NJ students

September 1, 2022

AP reports Democrats’ pandemic lockdowns did severe harm to our nation’s children as math and reading scores for 9-year-olds have fallen dramatically.

In the first nationally representative study to compare student achievement before the pandemic and in 2022, “[r]eading scores saw their largest decrease in 30 years, while math scores had their first decrease in the history of the testing regimen behind the study.”

Meanwhile, Andy Kim, Josh Gottheimer, and Tom Malinowski did nothing to get New Jersey students back in the classroom while they each collected a fat pile of cash from their teachers unions donors who were pushing to keep kids out of schools.
