I rise in strong support tonight for this legislation. I urge my colleagues tonight to get behind and support this charter school legislation. I am a supporter of school choice... I oppose, however, the voucher plan that we earlier voted down in this Chamber. I think it is a drain on the public school resources, limited resources that are available. My State of Wisconsin earlier this year struck down a private voucher plan in that State as an unconstitutional infringement upon the separation of church and State.
