                       CELEBRATING SCHOOL CHOICE

  (Ms. FOXX of North Carolina asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute.)
  Ms. FOXX of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, this week, I am delighted 
to celebrate the promise of school choice alongside thousands of 
teachers, students, and their families.
  Every student deserves an excellent education, and school choice 
empowers parents to choose the right education for their children. 
Through school choice, all students have increased access to charter 
schools, magnet schools, private schools, homeschooling, and other 
innovative programs designed to help students achieve their goals.
  When we passed the Every Student Succeeds Act, we advanced reforms to 
widen the reach of school choice and empower families and communities.
  I am proud of these accomplishments and look forward to continuing 
the work to protect and expand school choice and help students succeed.
