Extending grants without competition? That’s like reordering the same pizza without checking if anyone else wants a slice.

More school choice means more freedom—finally letting parents pick winners instead of the government picking losers.

Sure, broadening the board’s geography might help, but let’s see if it really means better schooling and not just red tape rewrites.

Expanding scholarships and cutting red tape? That’s how you give kids in D.C. a real shot at a quality education.

Expanding scholarships without accountability? Sounds like giving private schools a blank check and public schools a punchline.

More evaluations and reports sound good on paper—if only they translate to smarter outcomes instead of paperweights.

If we want better schools, competition is the answer—and this bill turns choice into a power play against stagnant public systems.

left-leaning 09/08/2025

They say ‘improvements,’ but it’s just a Trojan horse for privatizing education on the taxpayer’s dime.

left-leaning 09/08/2025

School choice? More like school ditch. This bill sidelines public schools and funnels funds away from our communities.
