Parents must have the opportunity to place their children in the educational environment that best meets their needs and gives those children the best chance at success. To do this, we must encourage healthy competition among schools inclusive of public, private, and homeschool options and ensure that funding follows the student. Further, any federal education funding should come in the form of block grants to the states, allowing a greater level of local control over how such funds are deployed in the classroom.

Supports school choice, funding follows the student, and federal block grants for education.

We need to explore price and cost innovations around direct primary care and preventative medicine while protecting patient-doctor relationships. We can find cost savings by increasing competition, negotiating prescription drug prices, and tightening work requirements for able-bodied Medicaid recipients.

Commits to healthcare cost reforms, drug price negotiations, and Medicaid work requirements.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Begich has taken same-term federal actions aligned with the promise, including introducing healthcare access legislation for Alaska and Hawaii sole community hospitals, co-sponsoring or supporting rural education funding reauthorization, and voting for a healthcare premium bill. However, the promise is broad and outcome-oriented, and the evidence shows legislative effort and partial advancement rather than a completed, comprehensive delivery of ensured access to quality healthcare and education.
