A blurb in the latest Newsweek suggests as much:
But now momentum seems to be shifting?at least at the state level.
Four new GOP governors have backed voucher programs, including three that also have Republican majorities in their legislatures. The most intriguing reforms are in Florida, where Gov. Rick Scott is the first to propose making vouchers available to all students, not just those in low-income areas. He hopes the distinction will satisfy a federal law requiring a ?clear and uniform? public-education system. There may, in fact, be something new under the sun.
The John Locke Foundation recommends ? in addition to lifting the public charter school cap ? instituting education tax credits:
Family education tax credits would reduce the state income tax liability of families that incur out-of-pocket expenses for private school tuition and educational services and expenses. A philanthropy education tax credit would reduce the state income tax liability of individuals and business that donate to scholarship funding organizations. Research has shown that both types of tax credits are educationally and fiscally sound.
