A school choice bill passed the North Dakota House this week while a similar proposal died in the Mississippi Legislature. North Dakota Lawmakers advanced a proposal to create education savings accounts (ESAs) for students by a 49-38 vote. The proposal would give families about $8,800 per student to use toward their child’s education, including at private school. The state Senate is considering similar ESA proposals.
