Published September 3, 2024 7:00am ET



As students head back to school this Fall, Washington Examiner is breaking down where each candidate stands on education. We will look at the promised policies of Former President Donald Trump, Vice President Kamala Harris, Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), and Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and how their leadership could impact your child’s school once in the White House.

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Kamala Harris’s running mate, is a former teacher and has made school policy his focus during his time leading the state of Minnesota, signing laws reflecting left-wing priorities. Walz’s economic agenda as governor included making public college tuition free for low-income students, transitioning to 100% renewable energy, implementing paid medical and family leave, and providing free meals for students in schools.
