“School choice saves kids! Democrats trap poor kids in failing public schools!”
What You Say
Voucher programs divert public dollars to private schools with no accountability, weaker civil rights protections, and mixed academic results. Finland and Massachusetts improved outcomes by investing in teachers and equity — not defunding neighborhood schools. 'Choice' without transportation, disability services, or oversight is a subsidy for families who already had options.
The Stab
You call it choice. Teachers call it defunding the school down the street.
