Abstract: The Committee for Education Funding (CEF), a coalition of over 90 national education associations and institutions from preschool to postgraduate education, applauds President Obama's Fiscal Year 2013 budget for prioritizing investment in education as a proven strategy to increase jobs and improve our nation's economic growth and competitiveness. Within a constrained fiscal environment and tight spending caps imposed by the Budget Control Act, the budget proposes an increase of $1.7 billion (2.5 percent) in discretionary spending for programs in the Department of Education. In addition, the budget proposes over $60 billion in mandatory spending for major new investments in modernizing schools and community college facilities, preventing further layoffs of teachers and other educators, improving the preparation and quality of teachers and school leaders, expanding career academies, and training workers through community colleges. While CEF is pleased with overall education investments in the budget, looming sequestration cuts present a major threat to students, schools, and colleges. The Administration's budget proposes to consolidate 38 ESEA programs into nine new flexible funding streams. While such consolidations ultimately will be decided in the ESEA reauthorization, from a budgetary perspective CEF believes any program consolidations should not result in the elimination of essential functions such as improving teacher preparation at institutions of higher education, family engagement, or providing K-12 students with sufficient specialized instructional support personnel.
