Union bosses pay lobbyist big bucks to kill school choice as he sends his kids to private school – Illinois Policy

The Illinois Education Association, which opposes the Invest in Kids tax credit scholarship program, pays its director of government relations more than $188,000 a year, according to the union’s 2022 federal filing with the U.S. Department of Labor. On the other hand, the average family receiving an Invest in Kids scholarship makes just $45,046 a year.
