OKLAHOMA CITY – House Democratic Leader Cyndi Munson, DOklahoma City, released the following statement after the Governor’s most recent executive order to audit public education funding.
“This recent executive order to audit public education funding is not a solution to get Oklahoma public schools out of our dead last ranking in the nation,” said Leader Munson. “The governor continues to advocate for eliminating the cap on the Parental Choice Tax Credit, which we know only further redirects public funds to private schools. Public school funding dollars are already tracked and reported. We must eliminate the Parental Choice Tax Credit and redirect the public funds to our public schools.My question to the governor is this: Where is the executive order to audit private schools?”
