A bit of ALEC liveblogging
Wednesday, July 30th, 2008 By Mike MaurerI’m lucky enough to be in the great city of Chicago at the ALEC convention, listening to former Milwaukee mayor John Norquist speak on school choice. You want a city where people want to live? Let them stay in the city with their kids, by allowing them to place their child AND their tax money in a school they choose.
One of the best parts, Norquist says, is that suddenly teachers unions bargain less for severance and pension, the things that most affect teachers about to leave, and start to negotiate working conditions for teachers who are staying.
