Here’s Kamala Harris’ Plan To Give American Teachers A Raise
Sen. Kamala Harris at a town hall meeting at Canyon Springs High School on March 1, 2019 in North Las Vegas, Nevada.
The California senator’s plan would try to close is known as the “teacher pay gap,” a gulf in pay between educators and comparable workers. It would mean a direct federal investment of some $315 billion over ten years, her campaign said, as well as incentives to push states to close the gap on their own.
The plan would also include funding for teacher training and recruitment programs, particularly at historically black colleges. That’s partly because, compared to states, the federal government has long played a relatively small role in K-12 education. Only a tiny fraction of funding comes from the federal level; the vast majority is made up by states, which fund education — and pay teachers — at vastly differing levels.
