In particular danger right now is the DC School Voucher Program, which for a fraction of the normal cost of a DC public education ($7,500) students are put through an educational system that is safer for them, gives them a better education and saves the public millions of dollars. Unfortunately, most Democrats are so beholden to teachers unions they are trying to shut the program down.

Here’s the kicker: the students are mostly minorities. I thought Democrats wanted to bring minorities up.
