the clear winner. The resounding parent victory against well-funded opponents to education freedom in Arizona should be another signal to leaders in other states that the parent army is not going anywhere.
What’s more, the victory in Arizona should be a gut check to anyone still afraid to stand up against the unions. Make no mistake: This fear is still all too common among legislators — but not in Arizona. The leadership shown by Gov. Doug Ducey , state Rep. Ben Toma , and many other legislators has been vital.
Finally, and most importantly, the rest of the country can now look to Arizona as a model for the innovation and achievement that happens when parents are empowered to choose an education that works best for their children. It’s no secret that the system has failed too many children,in the wake of COVID, and alternatives are desperately needed. In Arizona, all 1.
It's no surprise that the special interests were desperate to protect their monopoly. But across the state, parents stood up and made their voices heard, sharing what school choice meant to their families and pushing back against the biased, misleading narratives. Few believed the parent army could prevail against the odds, but they proved every naysayer wrong. This was truly a case of David vs. Goliath.
