H.R. 3801 - Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002
(Rep. Castle (R) DE and 6 cosponsors)
The Administration supports House passage of H.R. 3801, the
Education Sciences Reform Act of 2002, which would reauthorize
and strengthen the principal education research, statistics,
and evaluation activities of the Department of Education (ED).
The Administration looks forward to continuing to work with
Congress to perfect this bill further and enact legislation
that will promote a strong, scientifically rigorous research
capacity within ED, as such legislation is critically important
to the successful implementation of the education reforms recently
made by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 and, more generally,
to transforming education into an "evidence-based" field.
