In Ohio, we have the right to speak freely, teach, and learn. We trust the government to protect that right.

Except when it doesn’t — and the lawsuit against Ohio’s EdChoice program is eroding that trust.

Ohio’s EdChoice program offers scholarships which benefit kids on the autism spectrum, kids with special needs, kids living in underperforming school districts, and kids living in poverty.

These scholarships allow families to put the per-pupil state funds that would normally follow their student to their public school district toward a different school of their choosing instead.

The net effects? When a student leaves their public school, that school now has MORE per-pupil dollars. All local funds stay in place, and there’s one less kid to teach.

Despite this benefit, Vouchers Hurt Ohio, a group comprised of several public-school districts, is suing to shut down the EdChoice program.

Vouchers Hurt Ohio is suing to limit parental rights and reduce the number of educational options for families.
