Biden Education Secretary Dodges When Asked If Parents Should Be 'Primary Stakeholder' Of Child's Education
2021-10-01
[DAILYWIRE] Education Secretary Miguel Cardona stopped short of claiming that parents should be the "primary" stakeholders in their children’s education on Thursday.

Cardona sat before the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions on Thursday to testify on school reopening strategies and policies around COVID-19. Under questioning from Sen. Mike Braun (R-IN), Cardona refused to call parents the "primary stakeholders" in a child’s education.

"Do you think parents should be in charge of their child’s education as the primary stakeholder?" Braun asked the Education secretary.

Cardona responded, "I believe parents are important stakeholders, but I also believe educators have a role in determining educational programming."

"And I think that’s going to be a little out of focus," Braun shot back. "What I think you’re going to find across all elements of education, since they pay the bills, they raise the kids, they probably need to be the primary spokespeople for their own kids’ good education."
