As a taxpayer, do you like it when your tax dollar goes to a corporation that has no transparency obligations, no required public audits, no public records, no public meetings… basically no reporting obligations whatsoever?

Oh yeah, that corporation gets a blank check. How about when your government, like a state house, creates a special committee for one bill and makes a special rule that anything passed out of that committee gets to bypass the Appropriations Committee and the Ways and Means Committee, which means 1) less public input 2) less scrutiny on how much it will cost taxpayers?

That’s what happened this week in the Iowa House with a School Vouchers bill.

It’s not just happening in Iowa. We are seeing School Voucher bills brought in other state legislatures like Oklahoma, Idaho, Kansas, Utah, South Carolina, Texas, and more.

What’s driving these School Voucher bills? You guessed it… MONEY!
