Education
Texas' 30th Congressional District is a place for working families to thrive and is strengthened by diverse educational institutions spanning the district, including the Independent School Districts of Grand Prairie, Cedar Hill, Duncanville, DeSoto, Lancaster, and Dallas, as well as the higher education centers of Dallas College, Paul Quinn College, and the University of North Texas at Dallas. While many students wish to achieve their educational goals, the financial barrier can be too high of a bar to clear. Congresswoman Crockett believes in reducing the cost of higher education, and eliminating student loan debt so that the American people are not tied down with debt post-graduation.
