As U.S. Students Struggle, Biden Pumps $900 Million Into Green School Buses

The Biden administration announced it is handing out [an additional] $900 million to pay for green school buses, while American public school students continue to perform poorly in the aggregate. [emphasis, links added]

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the recipients of the funding for green school buses to fight climate change, with schools in 47 states receiving some funding.


The spending comes as American public school students continue to struggle to make up for learning disruptions caused by COVID-19 lockdown policies, as a 2022 review by the National Assessment of Educational Progress found that only 31% of eighth-grade students met or exceeded grade-level proficiency in reading, a decrease from 2019.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
