Lettter to Congresswoman Wasserman Schultz
Congresswoman Schultz,
I'm from Plantation, Florida and thanks to your support a year and a half ago my district finally has a Democrat representative. I'm from the FL-22 district and Ron Klein is my congressman. I personally appreciate the help and endorsements you gave him when he ran and I'm happy to see that the DCCC is concerned about his re-election campaign this year.

Thoughts on Education
Education.
Our education system is a mess. Standards vary from city to city, and state to state. We teach to the lowest common denominator. How do we simultaneously raise the bar while making sure that children with special needs don't fall behind? How do we ensure our children are making the grade, but not teach to the test? How do we attract new professionals into teaching without pushing the cost of attendance beyond the reach of everyone?
Introduction
First off, an apology to Lose the Label, especially Jake and Grant. I helped kick off the second round of LtL website development late last year but the change in semester and a load of new activities has severely hampered my ability to work on the website. But, I'm working on changing that, or at least devoting a few hours to write for our frontpage.
Who am I?
