And when it comes to developing the high standards we need, it's time to stop working against our teachers and start working with them. Teachers don't go in to education to get rich. They don't go in to education because they don't believe in their children. They want their children to succeed, but we've got to give them the tools. Invest in early childhood education. Invest in our teachers and our children will succeed. ✨ Pay teachers more money & treat them like professionals. Barack Obama's speech at the Take Back America 2007 Conference in Washington, D.C., sponsored by the Campaign for America's Future, www.ontheissues.org. June 19, 2007.
