00:00Then I would just invite Secretary McMahon to my district because yesterday in a town
00:06hall it came out that 92 teachers for Head Start are given the pink slip.
00:14The staff is being laid off and this is because there's no certainty that they're going to
00:18get the funding from the Department of Education.
00:21We have asked the Department of Education isn't giving any guarantee that the funding
00:26is going to continue.
00:27And the same uncertainty exists with Title I funding for schools and working class neighborhoods
00:33and funding for kids with disabilities.
00:34So she's saying that that funding is going to continue but she may just not be on the
00:39ground.
00:40I welcome her to come and I'd love for her to assure my district that those Head Start
00:43teachers not get fired.
