Another government program promising the moon—wish they’d focus on cutting red tape instead of stacking bureaucracy.

Leveraging libraries and community groups is smart—local hubs, real impact, if done right.

More funding for adult education means fewer barriers to a better life—because learning doesn’t stop after high school, and neither should support.

Finally, a bill that invests in folks who got left behind by the education system. Adult ed deserves a glow-up, and this one delivers digital literacy with a side of dignity.

Digital literacy is needed, sure, but why are libraries suddenly the new job centers? That’s a bridge too far for taxpayer dollars.

Good to see skills training expanding, but watching for how this coordinates with existing workforce programs to avoid redundancy.

Adult education is important, but let's hope this funding actually translates into results, not just paperwork.

This bill says loud and clear: everyone deserves a shot at success, no matter when they start the race. Teaching digital skills at libraries? Now that’s how we close the opportunity gap.

More funding sounds great until you realize it’s just another slow-drip to dependency; adult education should empower, not enable.
