President Donald Trump is set to sign an executive order aimed at expanding private school vouchers and other school choice initiatives. The order directs government agencies, including the Education Department, to repurpose federal dollars to prioritize school choice programs. This move is intended to provide states with new guidance on utilizing federal funds to support K-12 voucher programs.
While the executive order may free up some federal money for school choice, the majority of school funding in the United States comes from state and local sources. School choice policies are typically determined by state governments.
