Do school choice programs only help the families who use them? This week on Freedom to Learn, @schoolchoicenow Senior Fellow Patrick Graff (@ParthurGraff) breaks down his latest study, revealing how school choice benefits public school students, too.

It was a pleasure to chat with @KimStrassel at the @WSJ about the tidal wave of school choice momentum across the country

“We applaud the Kentucky legislature for stepping up for families and students and overriding the Governor’s misguided veto. The Kentucky legislature is committed to empowering families and students with school choice, while ensuring taxpayers can contribute to scholarship granting organizations in their home state. This move is a no-brainer for Kentucky taxpayers, families, and most importantly, students.” federationforchildren.org/afc-applauds-k…

BREAKING: AFC Applauds Kentucky Legislature for Overriding Veto, Opting State in to Education Freedom Tax Credit Statement from Ryan Cantrell (@RyankCantrell), Chief State Strategy Officer, American Federation for Children (@SchoolChoiceNow): “Despite empty rhetoric, Governor Beshear made it clear by opposing the Education Freedom Tax Credit in Kentucky that he takes his marching orders from the big schooling unions. We applaud the Kentucky legislature for stepping up for families and students and overriding the Governor’s misguided veto. The Kentucky legislature is committed to empowering families and students with school choice, while ensuring taxpayers can contribute to scholarship granting organizations in their home state. This move is a no-brainer for Kentucky taxpayers, families, and most importantly, students.”

HUGE milestone for the school choice movement. They said Texas would NEVER pass school choice... They said Texans would have NO demand for it... Proving the critics wrong!

"In other words, you spend $100k roughly, on school choice. You get the same effect as if you spent $1.1 million on public schools." - @LarsLarsonShow "That's right. It takes $11.20 for every dollar you would spend on the school choice route, just to achieve the same learning effect for public school kids." - @parthurgraff, Sr. Fellow at @SchoolChoiceNow A must listen on a new competitive effects study: youtube.com/watch?v=82e9lH…

"Why don't we get Washington, DC out of the way? It's why @POTUS @realDonaldTrump was so focused on this idea of reining in, closing the Department of Education. It's why he sent @EDSecMcMahon with this mission to put herself out of a job.. We have to get dollars as close to kids locally as possible, right in their backpacks to take to the school that best meets their needs."
