Education is the key that unlocks a better life for pretty much everyone, and the big barrier that keeps all too many people from grabbing that key is money. Beyond high school, education is expensive, and it's often a tough choice of whether to go into debt to access it or forgo it altogether in favor of jobs that don't require much training — which tend not to pay well. And some people don't even get to make that choice!
First Lady Dr. Jill Biden recently continued her long-time push to break down that barrier by providing free access to community college and training programs, and she did so with a new sense of urgency, too.
