Politicians don't always listen to their constituents if special interests are powerful and louder. They are, after all, single-minded seekers of reelection. So we're shifting the balance of power. Parents are the most powerful interest group. Ignore them? Lose your election.

No one fights against public education, Mr. Secretary. It's settled. We socialize the cost of educating every child; even the childless pay school taxes. The only question is whether the government exclusively should run schools or (like most other countries) merely fund them.

The ECCA would provide more than one million students across the country with the ability to choose the best educational services for them, without requiring new federal spending or creating intrusive regulations on schools or families. Learn more: p2a.co/fNDshWs

Seriously, is this supposed to be a smoking gun? My earnest reaction is that it makes American Federation for Children almost certainly the most formidable and effective ed reform organization in the country.

BREAKING: The U.S. House Ways and Means Committee just passed a nationwide school choice bill. The vote was 23 to 16. It now goes to the House floor. This is the 1st time a nationwide school choice bill has passed out of committee in U.S. history. #HR9462

Today my bill with Rep. Burgess Owens to expand education opportunity advanced out of committee. Empowering parents through scholarships for K-12 tuition and school supplies expands their freedom to decide where to send their children to school. See my remarks in Ways and Means Committee.

The U.S. House Ways and Means Committee passed a nationwide school choice bill 23 to 16. It now goes to the House floor. It would supercharge the school choice revolution already happening in red states while expanding education opportunities to families in blue states. #HR9462
