Back to EpisodesVoucher PACs Spend $5.5M in Tennessee, Pushing School Expansion
Description
Pro-voucher groups have spent over $5.5 million in Tennessee legislative races, pushing for expansion of the states school voucher program. The bill, House Bill 2532, has passed two committees with minimal opposition. Critics argue that without standardized test measures, the programs impact remains unclear. Opponents face heavy pressure, with attack ads and mailers linking them to Democrats and promising primary challenges. As the bill moves forward, the battle between vouchers and public school priorities intensifies.
