🧵The Dept of Ed has proposed rules governing the federal Charter Schools Program grants.
Charter lobbyists & right-wing talking heads are declaring that they are trying to "regulate choices of parents."

What the regulations actually do is ensure that new charter schools receiving the grants are:
➡️ Racially and socio-economically diverse
➡️ Driven by the needs of the community
➡️ Fiscally responsible and transparent, especially regarding for-profit management organizations

Grant applications will require a community impact analysis describing how student demographics are taken into account and ensuring that desegregation efforts would not be negatively impacted.

I support the new regulations of the federal Charter Schools Program (CSP). They were WAY past due.

First, here a good article about what the CSP is, how it works, and why more robust regulations are needed.

$4 billion so far has been spent via the CSP.
@Network4pubEd found that roughly 1 out of 4 of those dollars, so about $1 billion, was spent on fraud and waste, for example on schools that shut down within 1 year or never opened in the first place.
