	"description": "A federal private school voucher program is now law, and it is already putting public education funding at risk nationwide. This program allows donors to private schools to receive dollar-for-dollar tax credits for contributing to private school tuition, creating an open-ended system that could cost taxpayers and our public schools tens of billions of dollars each year. Those dollars are diverted away from public education and into private institutions that are not required to serve all students. The Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act would repeal this federal voucher program and stop the diversion of public dollars before it grows further. Public schools are the foundation of education in this country. They serve 90% of students and are accountable to families, communities, and civil rights protections. Private voucher-funded schools operate under different rules, often with fewer obligations and less oversight. We have already seen the consequences in states that expanded vouchers. Programs have led to rising costs, fraud and misuse of funds, declining public school enrollment, and school closures that make education less accessible for many families. This is part of a broader shift that redirects public resources into private systems while weakening the institutions that serve most students. Congress is being pushed to let this voucher scheme expand and drain public school funding even further. Lawmakers need to step in, shut it down, and protect the schools that serve our communities. Click “Start Writing” to tell your U.S. Senators to pass the Keep Public Funds in Public Schools Act and keep public dollars in our public schools.",
