A great testimony on the importance of #SchoolChoice from Walter Blanks. My School Choice Now Act is needed to ensure that families across the nation have options for their children’s education.

Young brother, fight for access to more funding for under performing schools. Demand a change in the formula that determines the amount of federal aid each district receives. Every family DESERVES a better education not just a select few through the choice program, right Tim?

Yes I Agree we should #Choose to fund public schools to a competitive level with private schools. All children should be learning with the same amount of resources🤷‍♂️ #SchoolChoice

I support this! I think we also need to carve out funding for hybrid/virtual learning. We need to let kids learn from the best teachers in the world, no matter where they are!

There aren’t enough private schools to accommodate school choice. So don’t defund public schools.

I oppose the School Choice Now Act, because School Choice favors the private schools and robs the public school system.

Amen,&such choice should always be made available.Our real challenge comes when there is no parental involvement? When children mandated by law to have a public education impede the learning of others? When teachers devote much of their time to social work? Daunting challenge?
Yes to school choice.

School choice is critical for all students, especially those in lower income areas. Grad in 1973. Had spent most of high school as an honor student in Pomona, Ca. Transferred my Jr. year to W. Covina high and realized I was an avg.student. Lower learning standards in Pomona.
Thank you I have two kids going to cyber charter school
