Vouchers and The "Big, Beautiful Bill"
A word from Education Law Center
The Big, Beautiful Bill - now the big, disastrous law of the land - includes a federal school voucher scheme.
Like most of the rest of the bill, it’s bad.
Bad for kids.
Bad for communities.
Bad for the federal budget.
Here’s more from Robert Kim, Executive Director of Education Law Center:
"Education has not been spared in this bloodbath. This legislation establishes a federal tax credit school voucher scheme with no spending cap. Study after study shows that vouchers sweep aside civil rights protections, support segregation, decimate public school budgets, and do not improve student outcomes. Vouchers undermine public education, the cornerstone of our democracy, and have no place in federal policy.”
