Nebraska Democrat Senator Justin Wayne: "My community can't wait another generation..if we care about kids..then get rid of the politics of it & let's just give them a chance."
He just voted for school choice.
The bill passed 33 to 13.
It needed 33 votes to avoid a filibuster.

Man, y’all say what the hell y’all want but @Usher done turned this Super Bowl Halftime Show the hell out. What a job! What a job! That was a damn good job!

Agreed! Great intellectual foundation made practical by thousands of grassroots emails/concerned parents making contact w/ their Gov & legislators & working w/ their in-state groups to get facts out. Huge personal thanks to @edchoice for sticking w/ IA every year since 2006.

The best news!!
BREAKING: It appears that Save our Schools Arizona only submitted 88,866 signatures.
They are far short of the 118,843 signatures needed to repeal #HB2853, the universal ESA AZ law via ballot referendum.
This means that universal ESA will become the law in Arizona.

Parents and ONLY parents who still NEED choice should be the ones at the podium. In news releases. Victors. For 20+ yrs we fought, but groups & talking heads do a disservice to moms & dads. It's about them and it always has been, no matter who takes the mic. @VirginiaFord
