...Booker is teaming up with South Jersey Congressman Donald Norcross to sponsor a bill that, among other things, ups the federal tax credit for teachers from $250 to $2500 and allows for college loan forgiveness in as little as seven years for those who work in troubled school districts.
..."They want to help teachers (by) giving them guns. We want to help teachers by giving them educational opportunity, and that's the difference," Norcross said.
