The Urgent Need to Reform Education: Focusing on Core Academics Over Wokeness
In an increasingly complex world, the gravest long-term threat we face isn’t from an external adversary. Instead, it’s from within our very own education system.
Teachers unions, with their growing influence, are pushing an agenda of ‘wokeness’ – an extreme level of social awareness that is becoming alarmingly prevalent in our schools. This focus is detracting from the fundamental subjects that form the bedrock of a well-rounded education: American history, reading, and math.
Our children deserve an education that equips them with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in life. They need an understanding of our nation’s history, the ability to read and write effectively, and a solid foundation in mathematics. These core competencies should not be overshadowed by the promotion of wokeness.
At Institute for Education Reform, we believe in the importance of a balanced education. We advocate for a shift back to basics, prioritizing traditional academic disciplines over divisive ideologies. It’s time to restore our focus on teaching the skills that will truly prepare our children for the future.
We invite you to join us in this mission to reform education, ensuring a brighter future for our students and our nation.

IER Dedicates Efforts to Ending the Attacks by Government Teacher Unions against Teachers, Parents and Families
Government unions should not exist. Public service should focus on serving the public good and those that enter it should be in the business of serving. Government jobs were never meant to hold the public – its families, children, and society hostage.
At Institute for Education Reform, we dedicate our efforts to once again put every child, parent, and American first in the mission of public service and not let them be forgotten. Americans should get an accountable and manageable government workforce, not one that teaches kids how to hate themselves while bankrupting our government to ensure they are never fired for bad work.
Our President, Matt Buckham, recently handled personnel for President Donald Trump where he oversaw cabinet level departments, including Department of Labor, and other independent agencies. In this role, Matt pushed to place leaders throughout government and coordinate the recapture of Executive Branch agencies that were under career and opposition control. Matt was one of the first staffers for the House Freedom Caucus, helping them navigate their first year as a group. Matt has served on Capitol Hill for over 11 years in various 501c3, government, and Executive Branch roles. He is a follower of Jesus Christ called to bring freedom to the captives.

The institute strives for the outright banning of all public sector employee collective bargaining and thus the ensuing collection of compulsory dues that warp the fabric of government by shutting out taxpayers from decision-making.
