The % of voucher users who were never in public school goes *even higher* with the universal scheme they’re proposing now. Almost as if researchers like me have been warning about this—and the voucher lobbyists got it wrong. As usual. wsmv.com/2024/02/28/educatio…

We have made so much progress in getting our public schools more funding, but there is still a huge gap that needs to be filled! Can we count on you to help make this happen? Sign the petition: actionnetwork.org/petitions/…

IDEA ensures schools provide students with disabilities the support they need to thrive. And yet, Congress has never fully funded this vital program.   Today, @RepHuffman and I reintroduced our bill to #FundIDEA & ensure ALL our children can access a high-quality education.

Almost 50 years ago, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act was enacted but our legislators have failed to provide full funding ever since. The time to fully fund IDEA is now! Thank you to @COPAA and @ChrisVanHollen for your work! Take action: copaa.org/page/FullyFundIDEA
