Taken from The White House‘s regular online chats feature, this transcript from the Feb. 3 discussion with Secretary Spellings highlights the education aspects of President Bush’s 2006 State of the Union Address, including the American Competitiveness Initiative and the emphasis placed on math and science instruction.
