There's lot of noise out there about school choice. Here's my op-ed in @Tennessean about empowering families by expanding school choice in Tennessee.

Gov. Bill Lee is empowering families by expanding school choice in Tennessee

The greatest local control is that of the family. Tennessee should put kids first and empower families with universal school choice.

Dramatic much? Empowering families with options in education will not eliminate public education...unless everyone chooses to leave. In which case Heidi just wants to protect something because by giving folks an option - she thinks families will all choose that option.

I personally want to empower all families to seek the best education for their individual child. Many people already have options. Many don’t including many poor and/or minority families. This empowers them. If you like your zoned school - you can keep it. @DeAngelisCorey

As Gov. Bill Lee continues to lobby GOP lawmakers on his school voucher plan, it appears that the argument of school choice being driven by a desire to help less fortunate children is now being completely abandoned. Critics had argued it was always a ruse.
