House Democrats not in favor of funding state’s private schools

House Democratic Caucus Leader Cyndi Munson, D-Oklahoma City said house democrats will continue to vote against any plan that would redirect public funding to private schools.

“HB 1935 is a $250 million dollar proposal to fund private schools,” Rep. Munson said.

HB 1935 passed the House A&B committee today.

"Oklahoma still ranks at the bottom of the region in per-pupil funding and Oklahoma teachers are some of the lowest paid teachers in the nation," Rep. Munson said.

House democrats said accountability and financial oversight have been major concerns with education funding.

Rep. Melissa Provenzano, D-Tulsa said that the bill does not provide any accountability.

“We don’t want another Epic. We don’t want another Class Wallet. We don’t want the funds to be spent on Christmas trees and video games,” she said.

Provenzano also added that the proposal will create long-term inequities.

“We are creating two systems: Public schools who take every student and private schools who take the students they choose. It is unethical and inequitable.”
