Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey announced Thursday that he has signed a bill enacting the most expansive school choice program in the country.

The Republican governor signed into law H.B. 2853, which drastically expands eligibility for the state's Empowerment Scholarship Accounts program to all students in the state, regardless of income.

Under the provisions in the law, over a million Arizona students will be eligible for more than $6,000 annually in education scholarships that can be used to cover any sort of school-related expense, including private school tuition, school material expenses, and private tutoring.

A similar law in WV was ruled unconstitutional by some lefty state judge yesterday. It will be appealed.

I appreciate this, but I still can't stand him.

Parents being allowed to choose which school their kids will attend?  THE HORROR !!!
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-
