Improving our education system by demanding results and improving health care, especially rural health care, not only makes sense, but will improve lives.
Improve the education system by demanding results.
Occurrences
Evidence
The senator's official press releases page shows the most recent items in the June 19-21, 2026 lookback window as housing, NDAA, FISA, tax, and water-project releases; no education-specific action appears in those latest entries.
Thune's official biography says he serves in the 119th Congress on Agriculture, Commerce, and Finance and is Senate Majority Leader.
Assessments
The claim is too vague to tie to a specific, measurable education-policy outcome, and the supplied evidence does not show any concrete education-specific result, legislative action, or executive action attributable to Thune. The latest official materials cited show active Senate work on unrelated topics, but nothing that would justify full delivery or even partial credit for the education promise.
