Do you support the “Education Freedom Account” program, which gives students access to the per-pupil share of state school funding to spend on private school or home school expenses?
"This should create competition for the student and cause the public school system to entice a student to attend. Many people think the EFA is taking money away from the public schools where in fact before EFAs were created the state kept this portion of money once the student left public school. At least now the parents get reimbursed expenses for only the amounts they submit."Other| Read My Position

Do you support giving voters who register without ID on Election Day a ballot that only counts if they return identifying documents to the state before a deadline?
