Coordinating for school privatization

Billionaires and hyperpartisan think tanks have been working for decades to move America toward a privatized education system. They desire unconstitutional voucher schemes that lead to discrimination, promote dismal outcomes, and defund our public schools.


Over a dozen of these groups exist in Michigan alone. Within the past few years, their tactics have intentionally converted school board meetings into circus acts and students into pawns. We must continue exposing these intentions, reinforcing the repercussions, and diligently standing up for properly funded Michigan schools.
