I wanted to hear what happens to a state when universal vouchers are implemented so I asked an Iowa legislator. Thanks to @YourlocalIDdoc for sharing the Iowa voucher disaster with my me. Let’s not go down this road in TN with the #voucherscam

Nope. Private schools will jack up tuition and you’ll no longer be able to afford it. Not to mention if your child is autistic or dyslexic or—heavens to Betsy—✨gay✨ the school can just kick them out and screw you over. Don’t fall for the slick grin and sales pitch—it’s a scam
The Education Freedom Act will empower parents to pick the right school for their child - regardless of zip code or income. Learn more about TN's universal school choice plan at tneducationfreedom.com

Senator Tim Kaine @timkaine has secured a commitment from Senate HELP Cmte Chairman Bernie Sanders @SenSanders that a markup will be held on the JOBS Act in the coming weeks. The JOBS Act would, among other things, authorize the use of Pell Grants for workforce programs. #PELLYes
