WSJ op-ed slams Alabama for lagging behind on school choice: 'The Alabama GOP may as well be the party of teachers unions'


The op-ed by American Culture Project CEO John Tillman discussed the struggle to pass school choice but said the situation in Alabama was most "egregious." He continued, "The Alabama Education Association's PAC has given campaign money to 92 GOP legislators since 2019. With two-thirds of AEA donations going to Republicans in 2022, Tillman said the Alabama GOP "may as well be the party of teachers unions." "Last year, school-choice advocate Corey DeAngelis asked on Twitter whether a key GOP senator would support school choice after receiving at least $15,000 in contributions from teachers unions. "It's a flawed argument, since universal school choice would create new private options and spur competition that improves public education."
