The billionaire-backed vouchers will destroy public education and our communities while making you pay for it. Vouchers are one of the worst ideas out there. #ksleg #ksed
One lesson the voucher lobby has learned: voter persuasion doesn’t work for them.

Their strategy is now brute legislative and judicial force.
In GOVERNING a DeVos-backed voucher bill sponsor calls voter opposition “irrelevant.”

And I note that many communities reject today’s vouchers because they see them as garden-variety cash transfers to wealthier parts of their states.
