🚨A new front has opened up in the push to privatize #schools.🚨

At Fox News Jeb Bush explicitly cited #soldastory as a reason we need #AZEd #schoolvouchers. I walk through why this is a new “moderate” weapon to attack #publiceducation to appeal to parents turned off by the culture war version 👇

Donald #Trump has been key to #schoolvouchers spread. It’s why he appointed DeVos to USED and it’s why acolytes like Kari Lake ran on the #azed voucher program.

And it’s why DeVos staffers routinely coordinate with #ElectionDenial leaders.

Groups opposing additional spending on #azed running ads saying "only" 55¢ of every dollar makes it to the classroom. They are trying to tell us that it's because "some superintendents make $200,000 year, while teachers make $55,000".
