I would ask the Senator to clarify. Is he speaking about the proposal to divert public funds to private schools, a proposal that has been rejected by an overwhelming majority of people in the District of Columbia, the school board, and the city council, the proposal that would send the money to schools without standards that the teachers in these private schools even have college degrees? Is that the proposal about which the Senator is asking?
