| Governor Ted Kulongoski's State of the State Address
Nothing will put Oregon's economy into overdrive faster than a stable, well-funded and accessible pre-K through 20 education system. This means that the state of education in Oregon will become – if it isn't already – the most important measure of the state of our state.
Higher Education, Adult Education
Reverse the decade-long disinvestment in post-secondary education, and pay more attention to retraining lower wage workers
Accountability
Create an electronic data system to track and manage student progress.
Finance
-- Put 4-percent of revenues into rainy day fund that will protect us against a repeat of multiple special sessions to cut essential government services.
-- Create an investment fund for Pre-K through 20 education.
-- Consolidate most central office administrative services.
-- Put together one statewide health insurance pool for K through 12 – instead of the 198 we have now.
