The only U.S. Senator from Illinois who isn't running for president stopped by to meet with a group of our New York DFER supporters this afternoon and to talk about education reform. Sen. Dick Durbin (who as Assistant Majority Leader in the Senate, seriously outranks all of the Senators running for president) gave up quite a bit of his time to engage with us on issues all across the education reform board.
Thanks for your time, Senator!
UPDATE: Just in case Alexander Russo thinks we were partying without him, this was a business-like meeting, not a DFER pub crawl.
