In our latest @edchoice @MorningConsult survey of K-12 teachers (9/25-10/7), these numbers jumped out to me in light of all the current attention - at least in our neck of the woods - on the new federal education tax credit. > Awareness is understandably low. Less than one-fourth of teachers (23%) said they had heard "a great deal" or "a lot" about the new federal tax credit, while 30% had heard nothing at all. > Support for states opting in is substantial. After receiving a brief description of the tax credit: 70% supported their state participating, including 67% of NEA members and 71% of AFT members. The contrast between union member responses and union leadership’s public positions is worth watching.

Like the general public, teachers consistently underestimate per-pupil spending on public school students. Private school teachers come the closest to accurate spending numbers. edchoice.org/2026-teachers-s…

ESA critics often treat any misuse as evidence that a program is failing. But we don't apply a zero-misuse standard to Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, or public schools. Why should ESAs be different? My latest for @edchoice: edchoice.org/2026-the-imposs…

The Impossible Standard for ESAs: Zero Misuse

EdChoice’s Marty Lueken explains why ESA programs need strong oversight without sacrificing families’ access to educational opportunities.
