    Everywhere the GOP has a lock on state government, the looting inevitably follows. Vouchers literally siphon state taxes and pass them to the hands of rich conservatives and their churches who serve only rich, white, privileged children. By design, vouchers work to entrench the upper class; further impoverish poor and minority citizens; and increase wealth disparity, illiteracy, and crime.

    "it’s government’s role to provide a good public education,” he said.

    That’s fucking rich from a Trump supporting Republican.

    EDIT: Kept reading. "we need to be looking at how we’re preparing all students to be successful, not just my student.” Jesus, they are so close to getting it!

    This is one of the few reasons I’m not 100% terrified of Republicans taking over this country. They all hate each other.
