Vouchers rise from the dead. Daley/Duncan school Renaissance is buried.
Nothing better illustrates the death of the Richard Daley-Arne Duncan Renaissance 2010 school reform hoax than the vote that is scheduled to take place today in the Illinois General Assembly on vouchers.
However the vote on vouchers for Chicago schools turns out (or if the vote actually happens), Daley’s support for it, along with the support of other members of the Chicago Democratic Party Machine, makes it very clear that Ren Ten is over.
Although truth be told, the death certificate was signed a while ago. Today they are just having the funeral.
And for those who thought that the idea of taking public funds away from public schools in the form of vouchers was so 1990s, it is back with a vengeance in the form of SB 2494.
If you haven’t done it already, this morning be sure to contact your state rep and tell them to vote no on SB 2494.
