The criticism from Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Ala.) came during a congressional hearing that focused largely on crime in the city.
In the exchange with Mendelson, Palmer added that he did not think all of the city’s schools are inmate factories. “I said you have some crappy schools,” he said. “So you’re telling me all of them are excellent?”
Palmer also referenced a statistic that the majority of prison inmates nationwide are high school dropouts. He did not provide a source for that figure.its four-year completion rates, from about 71 percent during the 2019-2020 school year to 75 percent last year.
