The starting salary for teachers in some states are very low. Teachers have a huge impact in our society because they are the ones responsible for educating the youth of America so that the youth will have the chance to succeed in the 20th century. Their impacts is huge but their salary is low. If their starting salary was higher, then more people would be motivated to be teachers. Teachers must be rewarded more because of their high impact of Society. Congress ought to pass a bill that states that all teaching jobs will have a starting salary of 50,000 or more per year and after that increase in pay per year can be determined by state. We the people sign this petition to ensure that the teachers and the quality of education in America remains strong.
