Last week, we won a major victory when President Obama fulfilled his
campaign promise and signed groundbreaking student loan reforms into
law. *Tomorrow,
the Honorable Arne Duncan will join Organizing for America supporters for a
special live webcast *about student loan reform and efforts to prepare our
children to compete in the global economy.

Arne Duncan has served as the chief executive officer of the Chicago Public
Schools and as head of the non-profit education foundation Ariel Education
Initiative in Chicago. On January 20, 2009, he was nominated to be secretary
of education by President-elect Obama and was confirmed by the Senate.

Curious how student loan reform -- and other ongoing efforts to foster
innovation and reinvest in schools -- will affect your family? Know a friend
or family member who is looking for answers? *We're proud to present this
unique opportunity to ask questions and learn more tomorrow, Tuesday, April
6th, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time.*

*Click here to ask a question -- and bookmark the page so you can tune in
tomorrow at 11 a.m. Eastern
Time.*<http://my.barackobama.com/page/m/55c10767/50112397/eeb9d9c3/118875f4/355569462/VEsH/>

*What:* Education Reform Webcast
with the Honorable Arne Duncan

*Where:* www.BarackObama.com<http://my.barackobama.com/page/m/55c10767/50112397/eeb9d9c3/118875f4/355569462/VEsE/>

*When:* Tuesday, April 6th
11:00 a.m. Eastern Time

Arne Duncan will sit down to speak with local students and answer questions
submitted online by Organizing for America supporters like you. So if you've
got a question, take a moment to submit it now -- then tune in tomorrow.

*In 2008, parents and teachers, students and professors, and all Americans
who care about our ability to compete in the 21st century stood together to
elect a president who would fight to strengthen our education system.*

Already, we've won a major victory: Student loan reform that ends subsidies
to special-interest lending companies, doubles funding for Pell Grants, and
will cap a graduate's annual student-loan payments at 10 percent of his or
her income.

But that's not all. For the past year, President Obama's administration has
implemented groundbreaking education reforms -- fixing flaws in No Child
Left Behind and sparking innovation in the states with the "Race to the Top"
fund.

Have a question about changes to student loans -- or just want to hear more
about education reform? *Submit your question now, then tune in to the live
webcast tomorrow:*
