Louisiana Governor Jindal presents education reform plan to Chamber of Commerce

Elizabeth Hill:

Governor Bobby Jindal's goal is simple, provide every child in Louisiana an equal opportunity at a quality education.

He shared his plan for education reform today at the Lafayette Chamber of Commerce.

"We do that by first empowering parents, secondly by empowering great teachers, putting a great teacher in every classroom and third by cutting through the red tape and bureaucracy to give flexibility to our local schools and local school systems."

Jindal has reiterated many times that more money and more time are not the answer for reform. He says it's all about more efficient spending.
