Sen. Bernie Sanders will call for a ban on for-profit charter schools
The Vermont independent also will call for a moratorium on the funding of all public charter school expansion until a national audit on the schools has been completed. Additionally, Sanders will promise to halt the use of public funds to underwrite all new charter schools if he is elected president.
"I think that we need to support our public schools, and that no child should be left behind in a school that is not functional," Warren said."Our whole job in America should be to make sure that every child gets a good education in a public school."Sanders' position is at odds with the Trump administration, which supports and promotes the public funding of charter schools.
