Abstract

The article discusses the impact and consequences of Arizona's universal school voucher program. The program, which allows parents to spend public money on private school tuition and other expenses, was initially promoted as a cost-saving measure. However, it has been found that the majority of voucher recipients were already sending their children to private school or homeschooling, resulting in new money being taken from the state budget. Critics argue that the program exacerbates educational inequality and diverts funding away from public schools. The article also highlights a protest rally held during the Republican National Convention, which showcased the diversity and determination of various social movements. [Extracted from the article]
