A statement from the Illinois Freedom Caucus reads, in part, “Opting-in would allow Illinois families to benefit from the program and restore scholarship opportunities that were eliminated in 2023 when Gov. Pritzker and Democratic leadership ended the state’s Invest in Kids tax credit program. Thousands of low-income students lost access to education funding. The new federal program revives that opportunity without costing Illinois taxpayers a dime."
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Will never happen in IL. CTU and other teachers unions will never allow this. These unions put themselves first, over students and education.
