Mike Huckabee, Former Governor of Arkansas
"True reform has to be about what happens in the classroom and the kind of opportunities we provide for our students. TAP equips our teachers with the resources to be successful by training them better and providing the salary incentives for them to achieve. It's not just about giving teachers better salaries, although no one would argue that that needs to happen, but it's first and foremost recognizing that when we train better teachers, it's easier to justify the better salaries. TAP gives us the capacity to do that very thing."
