Vouchers don’t help poor kids — they just help rich parents who already send their kids to private school. I asked if Greg Abbott’s voucher scam would give $80,000 to wealthy CEOs. The answer was YES. #txlege

@KellyBCartwrig1 do you have any research or articles for struggling middle school readers around EF and GSF? Is your research generalizable for middle schoolers?

@EdHanes4NC @jmjerrell1 @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham There is no significant difference of performance by black kids no matter if they have 2 parents or one, and income has even less influence on performance. Although these kids might slightly do better than other black kids they are still well behind their white peers.

As much as the left wants to fuss about “wealthy” getting vouchers, for more than 40 years, NC has provided universal vouchers for NC residents that attend private universities, and nobody claims that is destroying the UNC System ….
Dallas Woodhouse@DallasWoodhouse

One reason the opponents of the #ncga expansion of opportunity scholarships are so angry, is opening the program to all parents makes it politically impossible for future @NCDemParty leaders to end the program. Their own voters won’t put up with it. #ncpol

@KMarcusBrandon @EdHanes4NC @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham Our greatest need right now is finding and compensating quality educators. Vouchers take money that could go to adequately compensating teachers. You want to advocate for black and brown students? Advocate paying the teachers of black and brown students a living wage.

But it’s not lost traction - 70% of the electorate agrees with me. It’s not about who deserves it. It’s about rights. If that mom has the right to choose this mom Has the right to make the same choice. The state is per pupil spending. It’s not the states responsibility to determine who’s worthy or not. So you make it available to all.

@KMarcusBrandon @EdHanes4NC @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham Show me the polling data on lifting the income cap on voucher recepients. Show me data on private school accountability using the same superficial metrics we weaponize against public schools. Show me how people feel about private schools rejecting multingual learners and SWDs

@KMarcusBrandon @EdHanes4NC @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham To say 70% of the electorate agrees is quite a stretch. 70% might agree with the concept of school choice or expanded school choice. Heck, I agree with the idea of expanded school choice. It’s when you start peeling apart what that means, it becomes less popular.

Please don’t speak for mothers that you do not know. Please don’t make implicit biases about our community. This program is not new and for ten years the people you say it cannot help actually helped tens of thousands of people of color and they were all on income limits. Currently 43% of families of color on free and reduced lunch utilize the program.

@KMarcusBrandon @EdHanes4NC @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham First, I was just using the terminology used by the original poster. I don’t and shouldn’t presume to understand and use any demographic as a uniform group. Probably should have said “most” or “many” instead of implying all. That was a mistake.

@EdHanes4NC @DallasWoodhouse @triciacotham @KMarcusBrandon Schools should be held accountable for results. However, “poor black mothers” still can’t afford private schools when the vouchers only cover 30-50% of (most) private school’s tuition. So now they are back to underfunded and understaffed public schools…which id argue is worse

Sure. I’d be happy to provide my thoughts on your quote (because yours is a subjective characterization to “dunk” on me, I guess) as soon as you say my quote, if that is what you believe.
The Hon. Ed Hanes Jr. (Ret.)@EdHanes4NC

@jmjerrell1 @DallasWoodhouse I guess the other question is would we be willing to say "I support poor black mothers remaining trapped in public schools that are in kill zones with no hope of getting out and no proof of care from the ppl who fight vouchers?" #ouch @triciacotham @KMarcusBrandon

To be clear, you still didn’t say it. If you believe in the legislation, you and other republicans should be bold enough to explicitly say “Millionaires who already send their kids to private school should receive approximately $4500 to pay for said private school.”

@rithatsme2 @jmjerrell1 I don’t play class warfare If those people are paying taxes (and paying most of them) then yes they should benefit

I challenge you to find a classroom teacher who was working in 2019, worked all through the pandemic, and is still working today Then tell them that "research says" their skills have taken a hit over the last four years Just see how that conversation goes for you

@celebrityhottub Just said to my wife “I’m not filling all the way up here. Gas here is 20 cents more expensive here than other places around town.”
