In November, Colorado voters will decide whether the state’s constitution should be amended to specify a right to school choice.
But school choice is already guaranteed by state statute and federal courts. So why is this initiative being posed at all?
Even the initiative’s backers acknowledge that Colorado already has “one of the best school choice statutes in the nation.” Moreover, the ability for parents to choose private schools has been affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court for at least a century.
