from senator patty murray and lamar alexander. also the representative john kline, chairman of the house education committee and representative bobby scott it was the ranking democrat on the committee. all for work in this agreement together -- four worked on this agreement together. host: how does this affect federal it education funding? guest: the main vehicle for funding education is the title i program which started back in that older law i talked about, the elementary and secondary education act. this bill keeps it in place. it also keeps in place a mother key programs -- some other key programs. programs haveer been rolled into a big, flexible block grant the districts can use for certain purposes. they are supposed to use it for -- the help figure out programs to keep students state -- safe and healthy. a small portion can be used for technology. thank you user for well-rounded activities like arts education but they would have a lot more discretion over those funds. host: let's go to james in idaho. good morning. caller:
