Earlier this week, Susan Pendergrass wrote a blog post addressing some of the criticisms levied by The Kansas City Star editorial board about a bill that creates an Empowerment Scholarship Accounts (ESA) program in Missouri:
Big shock—now that the Missouri legislature has finally created a program to give school choice to students from low-income families and students with disabilities, the misinformation campaign against the program has begun. Case in point: The Kansas City Star editorial board has fired a first shot at the Empowerment Scholarship Account program, and it has gone wide.
On May 19, Show-Me Institute Senior Fellow of Education Policy Michael Q. McShane joined The Pete Mundo Morning Show to set the record straight about Missouri’s new, yet to be signed into law, ESA program.
