The Evil Empire Investigated?

Representative George Miller (D-CA) the ranking Democrat on the House Education and Workforce Committee is calling for an investigation of Department of Education grants to Bill Bennett’s K-12 company and to ABCTE.

On the former, who knows, but it sure seems fishy. On the latter, likely a dry well. ABCTE is producing good work and moving forward, it’s only the politics that are tripping them up.

Last week Democratic Senators Kennedy (MA) and Lautenberg (NJ) called for a GAO look at the Department of Education’s media advertising and watching project.
