Let's Get Government Out of the Way of Education and Jobs

By Congressman John Kline (R-MN)

SUMMARY:
Both are susceptible to harm when subjected to excessive federal intervention.

ARTICLE:
I am honored to have been selected by my colleagues to serve as Chairman of the House Education and the Workforce Committee for the 112th Congress. It may be difficult to understand combining education and workplace issues in a single congressional committee. What does a thirdgrade classroom have in common with a small business? As unlikely a duo as these issues seem, they are actually closely related.

Associated Equipment Distributors (AED) is an international trade association representing companies involved in the distribution, rental and support of equipment used in construction, mining, forestry, power generation, agriculture and industrial applications. AED member dealers are unique in that they are each authorized, via contract with an original equipment manufacturer, to inventory, sell and service new machinery in a given geography. More than 90% of AED's factory authorized dealers rent construction equipment as well. The Associated Equipment Distributors strongly adheres to and strongly advocates principles of integrity, ethics and fairness. The AED urges its members to conduct their businesses ethically and compatibly with the free enterprise system and the laws which govern it. Contractors can locate factory authorized construction equipment dealers at the MachineMart® web site.
