Every Ohio Child Would Become Eligible For Highly Popular Educational Choice Scholarship Voucher
Legislation introduced in the Ohio House of Representatives would ensure that every child in the Buckeye State would be eligible to participate in the state’s highly popular Educational Choice Scholarship voucher program.
This “Backpack Bill” (as in education funds will follow a child like a backpack) has been introduced as a “‘Legislative Intent Bill’ while lawmakers debate Ohio’s education funding formula,” according to the Center for Christian Virtue, a Christian public policy organization in Columbus. This means “finalized language will be amended into [the bill] and will ensure any child that chooses to opt into the Backpack Bill program can access a scholarship to attend the school that best meets his or her needs.”
