With Election Day approaching, voters are left in the dark about the implications of a voucher scheme that could reshape public education funding.
Kentucky Democrats Slam GOP’s Silence on Amendment 2 Plan
FRANKFORT, KY – The Kentucky Democratic Party released a new video today, accusing the state’s Republican leaders of failing to provide any details on their plan for implementing Amendment 2, a controversial proposal that could have significant impacts on public school funding. With just weeks left before voters head to the polls, concerns are mounting about the GOP’s opaque strategy and its potential cost to taxpayers.
The video, featuring a montage of prominent Republicans dodging questions about the amendment, underscores the party’s frustration with the GOP’s lack of transparency. “The Kentucky GOP hasn’t provided any insight into what Amendment 2 would mean for our Commonwealth’s public schools and what the price tag is for taxpayers,” said Kentucky Democratic Party Communications Director Jonathan Levin. “With just a few weeks to go before Election Day, voters still don’t know what this voucher scheme entails. It seems like Kentucky Republicans don’t either—or they’re just afraid to share because they know how bad vouchers would be for public education.”
