LOUISIANA HOUSE VOTES ON SCHOOL CHOICE RELATED BILL
Baton Rouge — The Louisiana House of Representatives vote on House Bill 98 sends a strong message that Louisiana is ready to advance education freedom for families, just like several other states have done. Every child deserves a school that fits this or her individual needs.
Parents know their child best and should choose their education. This legislation will ensure that state funds will follow the child to that school.
We urge the Senate to stand up for Louisiana’s families and their kids just as strongly.
