The US Dept of Ed is lying.

Could be, but I'm not sure why they would be. This program was passed by the GOP congress specifically in hopes of proving that vouchers worked, and it's George W. Bush's education department studying it.

Well, I look at George W. Bush's State Dept, and I see that a lot of long-serving civil servants seem to be working at odds with his policies.

I look at George W. Bush's Education Dept, and I see the same thing.

Government employees Unions are likely to support the Teachers Unions. Why? Well, the teachers unions are also Government employee Unions. It would be bad form to start trashing such institutions.

I am against vouchers because they would destroy the private school system. Now private schools can pick the students they want to admit and those they want to allow to remain, while public schools must admit every one that applies . With vouchers they become public school with the same admission criteria. Ask any P.S, teacher how this works out.QED the present article.
