With the Democratic nomination seemingly comfortably in Kamala Harris' hands, the 2020 presidential election can now turn to issues of policy. While Donald Trump has pretended to disavow the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 in favor of his vague party platform, it is clear that the Project 2025 will shape his administration's priorities if he's elected.When it comes to K-12 and higher education, Project 2025 is a bold blueprint for disaster in American education.
In the context of declining enrollments driven by demographic changes, now is hardly the time to be diverting public monies to unaccountable private schools. This will put our most vulnerable schools—those tasked with helping our most underserved students—at risk of school closure. We are not knee-jerk opponents of private and charter options for families, but the research makes very clear that these alternative options work best in a context where there is great oversight and accountability.
