The College Access and Opportunity Act addresses the important need to make higher education more affordable and easier to access for low and middle-income students. -- Ron Lewis

I won't sell any Facebook shares as long as I'm on the board. When I leave, all my Facebook shares will be donated to two or three D.C. education-related charities I've supported over the years.
