So what does the READ Act actually do? It puts proven, evidence-based reading materials in classrooms. It screens kids early so nobody slips through. It keeps parents in the loop with a real plan when a child falls behind. And it backs teachers with prep, PD, and coaching. Big changes, one goal. Every kid reading. https://tinyurl.com/4e63dm7u

Low literacy has real economic consequences for every community in the country. It costs taxpayers an estimated $224 billion each year and results in about $40 billion in lost productivity for businesses. These are not abstract numbers. They show up in lower wages, fewer opportunities, and a workforce that isn't reaching its full potential. That's why experts like former U.S. Secretary of Education Margaret Spellings support the READ Act, because getting reading right is an economic investment in America's future. https://tinyurl.com/4e63dm7u
