Every child deserves the opportunity to become a confident reader. We support this bipartisan effort to strengthen literacy instruction, expand early identification and support for struggling readers, invest in educators, improve access to evidence-based literacy resources, strengthen literacy research, and help families support reading at home.

Strong readers build a stronger America. Add your name to the petition to Congress to consider and pass the READ Act this session.

Reading opens doors to learning, employment, civic participation, and opportunity. Yet millions of children continue to struggle with reading proficiency, leaving them at risk of falling behind in school and throughout life.

The bipartisan READ Act, S. 4689, would strengthen literacy efforts by helping states improve reading instruction, expand early literacy screening and intervention, support teacher preparation, invest in literacy research, and help parents better understand and support their children's reading development.
