Utah Gov. Spencer Cox on Sunday signed a major school choice bill on Sunday, giving parents more options for their children’s education.
"School choice works best when we adequately fund public education, and we remove unnecessary regulations that burden our public schools and make it difficult for them to succeed. We are especially appreciative of our teachers and education leaders who helped push for more accountability measures which were not included in the original bill," Cox said in a press release.
Gov. Spencer Cox speaks during a news conference on Tuesday, Aug. 31, 2021, in Salt Lake City. Monday, Jan. 10, 2022.Utah became the second state to sign a major school choice bill this year, trailing shortly behind Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds who signed a similar bill last week.
"A universal school choice revolution has ignited. Utah is the second state this year to go all-in on empowering families with education freedom, and it's only January. Red states are now engaging in friendly competition to fund students, not systems. Iowa already passed universal school choice this year," DeAngelis said.
Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds signed an unprecedented school choice bill called the Students First Act, allowing any Iowa student to use public money to pay for private school tuition or other expenses.
