Passage:

It's our obligation to allow children a high-quality education. And it's our responsibility to make sure that the No Child Left Behind law which passed this chamber with a bipartisan vote of 381 to 41—is implemented fairly and appropriately not simply "fixed" because some organizations find it flawed. As a Congress, we're conducting that implementation oversight. I am pleased to see our Education and Workforce Committee hold oversight hearings on No Child Left Behind law and hope that it will continue.
