“This would benefit less than 10% of the school population at the cost of over 90% of our children. This is criminal,” writes JoLynn in Holladay.

This would benefit less than 10% of the school population at the cost of over 90% of our children. This is criminal.

Our Republican majority politicians, instead of spending time figuring out how to adequately fund public education, have passed laws that give us no say in what they do.

Trophy second wife from Holladay pulls over her third husband's BMW long enough to find her phone in a pile of empty Starbucks cups and wine boxes to tweet her sacred opinion out to the Trib

is the most disgusting left wing rag in the country. Defending lazy teachers as children come out of these GOVERNMENT Schools illiterate! School choice is the best and only way to obtain a “Quality Education”, insulating children from failing teachers and their union!

How dare you help poor and middle class motivated parents get additional resources for their children! This is criminal!!

Less than ten percent? This bill appropriates enough money for less than one percent, with priority going to students from low income families.

You sound heavily vaccinated.

Actually, vouchers could help transform public education in Utah. Creates competitive models and forces public schools to innovate and evolve. BTW, vouchers typically help lower income families stuck in failing public schools the most. tryhonesty

And while you’re at it, cameras in classrooms ASAP.

curiousdoubter The vouchers are only to help the wealthy they will not help any others. If the state republicans wanted to help they would feed the children.. use the money to help the homeless

Follow the money

Criminal? Box wine Karen is upset.

On what study do you base the 90% claim?

Enough of using my tax money to subsidize poor people and the education of their kids! Time to subsidize rich people, instead! Besides, rich people contribute more to politicians, so politicians should pay more attention to them.

Kids deserve choice over government run schools.

SharonGF_NBCT It should be a law. In order to write an education bill, you must spend a year in the classroom. Wouldn't that be interesting. Just Maybe it would give the legislatures a real life prospective!?!

Only 10% of parents care about their children?

If the Trib opposes it, it’s good for the state and/or country

The SLTrib's subscription numbers should be an indicator to how reliable a publication they are.

As is typical with these bills this one is funded by dark money and outside interest groups.

Boooo my kid’s homeschooled, gimmi the money

The bill is stupid.

Yes to vouchers!
