The recent statement emphasizes the importance of quality education for all students, advocating for academic freedom and a content-rich curriculum that promotes critical thinking. The statement highlights the need for American history courses to cover foundational documents and principles such as the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Federalist Papers, and natural law.

The statement also expresses support for investments in public schools while advocating for educational choice through options like charter schools, homeschooling, virtual schools, and voucher programs. It calls for local control over education to remain with elected school boards and opposes federal or state interference in areas such as finance and curriculum standards.

Furthermore, the statement suggests eliminating the U.S. Department of Education and supports educational pathways that align with both student needs and market demands at high school and university levels.
