If you care about PUBLIC EDUCATION, this video is a MUST Watch! The current "push for school vouchers" is directly related to the corporate BILLIONAIRE-backed charter school movement that has been causing chaos in school districts across the country. @jennycohn1 @EdLawCenter

I support public education. That's why I am a firm no on Trump's federal tax credit program that threatens to divert public K-12 funding to private schools. Coloradans want a Governor who's clear-eyed - not someone who wants to wait to see what regulations Trump may propose.

"The program is a springboard to a voucher program — which uses taxpayer dollars to support students attending private schools, including those with a religious affiliation — and they believe the program could feed a movement toward privatizing schools." coloradosun.com/2026/03/09/col…

This federal tax credit school VOUCHER "quietly cedes public authority to private donors and SGOs." Colorado legislators hope to address the inherent discrimination in this voucher scam passed by Congress.@EdLawCenter @pfpsorg @OhioPEP @joshcowenMI impactpolicies.org/news/828/color…

Phil Weiser is a firm NO on Trump’s federal tax credit program that threatens to divert public K-12 funding to private schools. Coloradans want a Governor who’s clear-eyed about supporting public education. He will opt OUT of this voucher scheme. fb.watch/F-ZPgDn23N/

Don't be fooled about the federal tax credit voucher ($1700 in 2027). This is a Republican scam so taxpayers will pay less in "federal tax" money so more kids can attend Catholic and Christian schools. Bye bye separation of church and state in schools! thepublicdiscourse.com/2026/02/100265/

The "Joint Committee on Taxation estimates that these tax credits will cost the federal government $25.9 billion over the next 10 years." @DianeRavitch @DenverChannel @ProgressNowCO @DeepNotShallow @pfpsorg @EdLawCenter @BruceLesley @joshcowenMI bellpolicy.org/in-the-know-sc…

"Another consequence of turning public education dollars into private subsidies is that it creates a lucrative marketplace for the companies that manage these voucher systems." @NancyOsborne180 @leoniehaimson @EdLawCenter @palan57 @DianeRavitch tcf.org/content/commen…
