    http://www.masb.org/page.cfm/200/
    
    Extractions: Anti-Voucher Resolution for School Boards WHEREAS, a proposed school voucher ballot initiative would amend the Michigan Constitution to eliminate the ban against providing state funds to support the attendance of any student at private or parochial schools and require a voucher for nonpublic school tuition for parents from a “qualified” school district; and WHEREAS, it is clear that this proposal will divert scarce resources from public schools while it subsidizes private and religious schools which are not subject to any oversight from any elected officials and are allowed to set their own tuition rates and have exclusive admission policies; and WHEREAS, a voucher program would likely increase discrimination and segregation by fragmenting Michigan’s children along lines of religion, race, ethnicity, disability, and social class; and WHEREAS, a voucher program as proposed would narrowly assist wealthy families by using tax dollars to subsidize students from affluent homes who are already enrolled in private and religious schools while excluding low income students who cannot afford to pay the remaining cost of private school tuition; and WHEREAS, passage of this measure may spur a legal challenge based on constitutional grounds as evidenced by courts in Ohio, Maine, and Pennsylvania which have ruled voucher programs in those states to be unconstitutional; and

69. ARL: Voters Say No To School Vouchers
    and michigan, overwhelmingly rejected voucher schemes in statewide referenda. Thesevoters handed advocates of public aid to private and parochial schools

    Extractions: Home About ARL Articles >> School Vouchers by Albert Menendez and Edd Doerr Regardless of how the U.S. Supreme Court rules in the Cleveland school voucher case this year, the voucher issue will continue to play a role in the political process. Just about every state legislature and Congress could see battles over proposals to drain the public treasury to support nonpublic schools’ under the guise of parental choice. And hard-pressed public schools will be caught in the crossfire as they try to maintain adequate levels of funding to educate 90% of this country’s children. N THE 2000 ELECTIONS voters in two large and important states, California and Michigan, overwhelmingly rejected voucher schemes in statewide referenda. These voters handed advocates of public aid to private and parochial schools their 23rd and 24th defeats in 25 elections held in 14 states since 1966. The California vote was 71% to 29% against Proposition 38, an elaborate voucher proposal that would have cost at least $2.4 billion and would have required the state to give a $4,000 annual voucher to any parent, rich or poor, to send a child to a private school. No accountability for the expenditures and carte blanche for private school religious and gender discrimination were parts of the plan. Californians of every demographic group and regional location voted against the plan, including 66% of Catholic voters. Even rural, white “interior California” counties that voted heavily for George W. Bush for president opposed the initiative.

    Extractions: Michigan Voters Want Choice of Schools, Not State Takeover New survey shows majority support state-funded scholarships for public, private, parochial schools Should the State of Michigan take over failing school districts? Most Michigan voters don't think so. But a statewide survey conducted in mid-February shows that the majority do support an alternative reform: state-funded scholarships that would allow poor children in failing schools to attend the public, private, or church-sponsored school of their parents' choosing. In Detroit, where failing schools are the focus of heated debate, choice supporters outnumber opponents two to one, higher than in any other Michigan region. The February survey was conducted by EPIC/MRA and commissioned by TEACH Michigan and the Detroit Free Press . The newspaper sponsored questions regarding the state takeover of schools, and the reform group asked questions regarding school choice. The survey has a margin of error of four percentage points. "Parents want the power of choice to purchase reform," said TEACH Michigan executive director Bryan Taylor, pointing out that parents with children at home were also more likely to support choice scholarships.

    Extractions: Now, to the phones: No name from Port Huron: "I am calling to respond to Dick from Marysville who has a problem because Jennifer Granholm sends her children to what he calls private school. Basically, Jennifer Granholm sends her children to Catholic school, not because she doesn't like the public school system but because she wants her children to have a religious education. I send my children to Catholic school for a religious education. My parents are both retired from the public school district. I went to Catholic school. It's not the public school system that's the problem, it's that you don't get religion there." John from Cottrellville: "Isn't it a joke that after the election the Senate votes raises for themselves of $4,700 a year. They cannot live off of $150,000 a year that they are paid now? People live on $20,000 to $30,000 a year on the average. People out of work do with less money then that. It is time for a recall. I am disgusted. Some of the people I voted for voted for the increase. The terrorists are not overseas, they are over here. Your greedy politicians are out to destroy this country with their greed."
