'Republicans are delivering on that accountability and freedom with school choice. So far, Democratic governors have no coherent answer. Their union paymasters won't allow it.' -dcexaminer

Fueled largely by the failure to keep schools open during COVID, public satisfaction and trust in public K-12 education are near all-time lows. Parents are not happy with a system that funnels infinite resources to teachers unions with no accountability or good results. They overwhelmingly want school choice , and more Republican-controlled states are delivering.

In Wisconsin, Democratic Gov. Tony Evers stretched his state's line-item veto beyond credulity, changing a two-year $650 increase in per-pupil spending, into a 400-year $130,000 hike. Evers accomplished this by outlandish editing to change the end of the spending increase from “2025” to “2425,” manifestly abusing the spirit and intention of the law. He also used the same power to cancel the elimination of 188 diversity, equity, and inclusion bureaucrats at the University of Wisconsin.

In North Carolina, Gov. Roy Cooper went so far as to declare a “state of emergency” to stop the Republican-controlled legislature from passing a Choose Your School, Choose Your Future Act, which would eliminate income eligibility limits from the state’s wildly successful and popular Opportunity Scholarship Program.

It shouldn’t be surprising that in the month since he declared a state of emergency, Cooper hasn’t been able to turn education leaders or the public against the proposed expansion of the program.
