“Montana lifted caps on charter schools. Arkansas now offers tax-credit scholarships to low-income students. West Virginia and Kentucky have funded savings accounts that help parents pay tuition at private schools. Florida, a movement leader, has enlarged its tax-credit scholarship programs. Even Rhode Island Gov. Dan McKee promises to veto a moratorium on new charter schools. As one voucher activist told me: ‘This feels like the most school choice legislative action in … years.’”
Georgia didn’t miss out on this party completely, but neither did it do enough to make Peterson’s list.
We’re not alone in that, obviously. Advocates for educational options in other states sometimes fall short as well.

ATLANTA, Ga. â The Georgia Assembly ended the first half of its two-year session on March 31 with more of a whimper than a wail as most of the headline-grabbing bills passed in the days before adjournment.
Most of the highly debated legislation, including voting reform and expansion of special needs vouchers for public school students, was on Gov. Brian Kempâs desk before the final day of the 40-day session.
The final day was busy as lawmakers passed legislation dealing with homeschooled studentsâ eligibility to play on public school teams, the rights of âpandemic podsâ for small groups of students, and adding vaping product information to the drug and alcohol courses.
