"Our administrators, teachers' unions, have ignored what they're there for, and that's to educate our children. They've gotten really political; they've had their ideologies that they want to push onto our kids—parents are tired of this." @LauraZorc #ampFW ampfw.org/3KiSuxK

👀 Public schools in Florida spend nearly TRIPLE the amount of their private counterparts, around $21,000 a year compared to $8,000. Attribute the disparity to poor financial management on the part of the public institutions. @LauraZorc #ampFW @Newsweek ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

👀 "There's a lot of waste and there's a lot of overheads that goes into the public schools. [The new Florida law would mean] kids are going to receive just as high-quality education, or even better, than the public schools." @LauraZorc #ampFW ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

👀 As well as giving parents from all backgrounds the opportunity to send their child to private school, the new law would improve the quality of education at public schools through increased competition for students. @LauraZorc #ampFW via @Newsweek ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

👀 "[New Florida law] actually increases and offers a better quality [of education], but it also gives the parents the opportunity to put their kids in an environment that their children learn the best." @LauraZorc #ampFW ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

👀 Teachers' unions were against vouchers because they are "losing the power that they once had here in America," and resorted to "obvious fear tactics." @LauraZorc #SchoolChoice #ampFW via @Newsweek ampfw.org/3TXjWEf

👀 "[Teachers' unions] want to put a fear into families, taxpayers, saying they're going to strip away and tear down the quality of public schools. If public schools are offering a good product, families aren't going to want to go away." @LauraZorc #ampFW ampfw.org/3TXjWEf
