Speaking from his childhood classroom in Meriden, Connecticut, he highlights how public schools shaped his own journey and argues that strong public education systems are essential for opportunity and equity. To support educators and students, he outlines the \"ABCs of Education\": A for Agency (empowering teachers to make decisions), B for Better working conditions (including mental health support and career pathways), and C for Competitive salary (noting U.S. teachers earn significantly less than peers in other professions). He calls on communities to engage locally and advocate for the resources and respect educators deserve.\n
