charter school in nashville and met a young woman there. she got a full scholarship to boston college. i ll never forget, here we are, we like to talk to the media. the media didn t want to talk to us at all. they wanted to talk to this young lady, an amazing success story. i wish yoi you tu the best of l. thank you. thank you, senator. thank you, senator paul. senator franken. i m a member of the minnesota dfl party, the party that the chairman invoked at the beginning of this hearing. charter schools are not the issue here. minnesota is thoroughly in the mainstream. there are 37 states in this country that constitutionally prohibit the use of public school money for religious schools. so it is a dfl party in minnesota, thank you very much, that is in the mainstream. and not our witness or the chairman.
