Dem VP Choice Should Support Public Schools

Pennsylvania's governor, Josh Shapiro, is one of the favorites for Harris's VP pick.  From where I sit, Shapiro's position on school privatization should eliminate him from the running.  

From Chalkbeat, May 2024:

Shapiro said during the [budget] address that he still supports some form of voucher funding for students in underperforming school districts to spend towards “extra tutoring, books and computers, or yes, going to another school.”

Shapiro added, “the Senate passed a proposal last year that included important elements of that, and it’s something I support and consider to be unfinished business.”
