I appreciate that this new voucher accountability legislation draws heavily from a set of guidelines I proposed last fall @nepc.bsky.social
If these schemes did what their billionaire backers claim they do, these should be easy to follow.

Ah yes, data, the objective reality that we simply observe and in no way, shape, or form create or interpret.
Johnson: "Elon's cracked the code. He's now inside these agencies. He's created these algorithms that are constantly crawling through the data & as he told me in his office, data doesn't lie. We're gonna be able to get the information. We're gonna be able to transform the way federal govt works."

Brother how do you think we got them in the first place? How are we already forgetting Unsafe at Any Speed (which admittedly is deeply fitting subtitle for Tesla)

Private interests looking to fundamentally restructure schooling with no regard for - and frankly to the detriment of - students, where have I heard that before?
Approximately 20 members of Elon Musk’s staff have begun working within the Education Department. They have gained access to multiple sensitive internal systems, including a financial aid dataset containing the personal information of millions of students enrolled in the federal student aid program.

This is, perhaps, the most patently absurd thing I've read in a while. Not only is it just obviously negligent in trying to grind its axe, but the date is an obvious typo (and this is taken from Congress' website [https://www.congress.gov/118/bills/hr899/BILLS-118hr899ih.pdf])

I just want to stress that - assuming this is following existing trends in both choice and this administration - this is going to be bad policy that will harm students, families, and communities in multiple ways.
The president directed several departments to submit plans for using federal funds to expand school choice.
