Nebraska teachers union trying to kill school choice law out of fear, mother says

Clarice Jackson, a mother and school choice advocate, urged parents in Nebraska not to support the union-backed initiative to repeal the state's school choice program.

"That's unfortunate because it's about students," she added.  Teny Sahakian is an Associate Producer/Writer for Fox News. Follow Teny on Twitter at @tenysahakian. 

In May, Nebraska passed its first school choice bill, The Opportunity Scholarship Act. This is tax credit-funded program that will provide students from middle and lower-income families, students who have been bullied, those with exceptional needs, in foster care, from military families and students denied option enrollment in a public school the ability to receive a scholarship to attend the school of their family’s choice.
