Rick Scott's Public Statements on Issue: Education

Office:

On The Ballot: Running, Republican for U.S. Senate (FL) - Jr

Date Title
10/31/2022 Tweet - "To favor or discriminate against students based on race or ethnicity in the college & university application process is simply immoral & divisive. We need to be a nation where people will be judged by their merits & the content of their character, not the color of their skin."
08/29/2022 Tweet - "While the Biden admin is busy turning its back on families, I'm fighting to #MakeWashingtonWork. If Dems really want to solve our student debt crisis, then let's actually solve the problem by holding colleges & universities accountable to taxpayers."
08/24/2022 Tweet - "Democrats' push to "forgive" student loans won't solve the problem. We need REAL solutions that don't create an added burden on taxpayers. My #COLLEGEAct will actually hold universities accountable for student outcomes & force them to answer for sky-rocketing tuition costs."
08/23/2022 Tweet - "Wiping out millions of dollars in student loans doesn't solve the problem. Instead, it forces millions of hardworking Americans, already struggling to afford high prices, to foot the bill for other people's degrees. And it could make inflation even worse."
07/16/2022 Tweet - "It was great to speak at @Moms4Liberty #M4LSummit22 about the importance of school safety & what we did in Florida to keep our kids safe. Parent involvement in education creates safer & better schools & I'm proud to see Moms For Liberty working to amplify parents' voices."
05/26/2022 Tweet - "We've been working for years to pass the Luke & Alex School Safety Act. @SenSchumer should immediately accept this invitation to meet with @maxschachter so he can explain why he blocked this bill & why he's lying about it now."
05/25/2022 Tweet - "This was a bill I worked on with the parents of Parkland victims. It's named after them. You're a liar and a hack."
05/25/2022 Tweet - "After the horrific shooting in Uvalde, I spoke in support of my, @SenRonJohnson , @marcorubio , @ChuckGrassley & @SenatorRisch 's Luke and Alex School Safety Act. This would help create safer schools to prevent another tragedy. @SenSchumer blocked this commonsense bill's passage."
01/05/2022 Tweet - "This is devastating for students & working families. Joe Biden said he was going to, "shut down the virus." All he's done is shut down our schools. He has completely failed."
