If something works in education but doesn't benefit the NEA, Obama will kill it! The school choice program in DC works but the NEA hates the program, so it must go!!
Never mind, it's just one more lie from Barack - he's just feeding another support group at the expense of others.
He is not one of us - He doesn't believe in the founding of this country. What other reason would he want such radical changes for our country?
Speaking out for school choice in D.C.
Heritage Foundation - Amanda Reinecker
When it comes to education, the Obama administration has promised to "fund what works." So why does the administration continue to hedge on whether to fund the popular and visibly successful school choice program for disadvantaged kids in the nation's capital?
This past Wednesday, over 1,000 concerned Americans rallied in support of the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship program, which allows 1,700 children to attend private schools instead of the failing city schools.

Heritage Foundation education expert Dan Lips reports that program participants and their parents criticized the "hypocrisy of Congress bailing out failing corporations but taking scholarships away from D.C. students."
Statistics demonstrate the effectiveness of voucher and scholarship programs that allow underprivileged students to attend private schools. Members of Congress have drawn the same conclusions: a recent Heritage report reveals that a third of lawmakers have chosen to send their kids to private schools. Perhaps they will consider allowing disadvantaged families to do the same.
