Low-income kids lose

Two weeks ago, Illinois became the first state to abolish a major school-choice initiative. This was a moment of great sadness for my native state.

Thanks to seven Illinois Democratic members of Congress, Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker, Democratic House Speaker Chris Welch, Democratic Senate President Don Harmon, and teachers unions, 10,000 low-income students will lose their school-choice scholarships provided through the Invest in Kids initiative.
