The best solution to income inequality is providing a high-quality education for everybody. In our highly technological, globalized economy, people without education will not be able to improve their economic situation.

When mothers earn their fair share, young children have greater access to quality health care, educational opportunities, and safe communities. By ending the wage gap, we will help ensure that every child can achieve his or her God-given potential.

Early investment in the lives of disadvantaged children will help reduce inequality, in both the short and the long run.

I fall into the camp that income inequality is the biggest problem we face.

Kids need to be equipped for that. They need to learn to use that technology to keep the new economy going.

The biggest single challenge to America and our future is income inequality. We've got to fix it.

I can't solve the poverty problem, but there are things you can do to mitigate its effects on kids.

Even the best parents have to spend so much time making ends meet that they cannot help their kids with homework or afford the extra tutoring that wealthier students enjoy. To address these unjust disparities, we need an early education revolution.

We need to prepare our kids for a 21st Century economy, and we're not doing it with our schools.

Who knows what technology will emerge in the next five years, let alone 20. Yet the education we provide our children now is supposed to last for decades. We cannot train them for jobs that do not even exist yet, but we can provide them with the minds and tools they'll need to adapt to our ever-changing set of circumstances.
