CWN Editor's Note: Arizona’s Governor Doug Ducey boasts that his state “is now the gold standard for educational freedom in America,” after the passage of a law that allows students to use public funds for tuition at any school of their choice.
The new law—the result of a campaign to “fund students, not schools”—has won applause from advocates of educational choice.
