Before we talk seriously about "Every Child Succeeds"

A comment on the old education law, "No Child Left Behind" (Susan Ohanian, December, 2006).
 
When Congress passes
No Child Left Unfed,  
No Child Without Health Care and
No Child Left Homeless,
Then we can talk seriously about
No Child Left Behind.
 
Updated version: A comment on the new education law, "Every Child Succeeds."
 
When Congress passes
Every Child is Well-Fed,
Every Child has Proper Health Care and
No Child is Left Homeless,
Then we can talk seriously about
"Every Child Succeeds"
