A little known fact about the Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill is that it creates a national voucher program.
Their voucher scheme helps funnel taxpayer dollars into private schools, including religious schools, which lack accountability, transparency, and civil rights protections.

I'm back at the Capitol to advocate for New Jersey because what I saw at Delaney Hall is out right disturbing.
Here are three things we can do to make things better for detainees and their families.

I’m the product of good public schools, from kindergarten to the Merchant Marine Academy. Every kid deserves the same shot I had, but private school voucher programs threaten that opportunity.
Read my op-ed on what Arizona's experience with voucher fraud tells us about where this road leads and why I'm pushing to repeal the new federal voucher program.

Public money should fund public schools, which serve 90% of America’s kids. The new federal tax credit voucher program will divert critically needed public funds away from public schools.

“Choice” without access isn’t real choice. Voucher-funded schools can deny admission, lack services for students with disabilities, and aren’t held to the same accountability standards. It’s the school’s choice not school choice! pfps.org/research/
