This is where Kansas legislative leadership is trying to go. They’re trying to create a private school subsidy for anyone who wants it including people who can already afford private school tuition. Tax credit “scholarships” are wealth distribution from rural to urban/suburban and an entitlement program for able bodied people. “Indiana’s private school voucher program saw the largest amount of participation during the 2022-23 school year since the program’s creation, and most of the scholarships are going toward white wealthy families.” Check out this link from the Indy Star: https://www.indystar.com/story/news/education/2023/06/15/indiana-private-school-vouchers-racial-demographics-participation-household-income/70322001007/?fbclid=IwAR3qNkrn8kAQe_9VzB8OUVm_S_eYnj_tRNhyNYvnQrFQa9FVJ60TBnEVZxI Originally posted to Facebook on June 15, 2023....

Moms for Liberty Propaganda
Moms for Liberty are trying to ban books and spread misinformation.

Leave a Comment Information About Moms for Liberty
We shared on Facebook this post from York, PA because Moms for Liberty is a national group and pushing the same agenda funded by dark money from outside our own states. They’re coming for school boards across the country, including in Kansas. “Parents are within their rights to insist on the best education for their children.
