INSTITUTION Heritage Foundation, Washington, DC. PUB DATE 1995-03-00 NOTE 83p. AVAILABLE FROM Heritage Foundation, Publications Department, 214 Massachusetts Avenue, N.E., Washington, DC 20002-4999; fax: 202-544-2260. PUB TYPE Reports Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Charter Schools; Educational Change; *Educational Vouchers; Elementary Secondary Education; Federal Legislation; *Free Choice Transfer Programs; Grants; *Private Sector; Program Development; *School Choice; State Legislation; *State Programs ABSTRACT School choice advocates made many advances in 1994, and many states seem ready to pass school choice legislation in 1995. This report describes the state of school choice efforts in the individual states. School choice advocates look for action by the Federal Government as Congress discusses ways to help states implement choice, whether by vouchers, block grants, or other approaches. In 1994 there were increased numbers of privately sponsored school choice programs funded by corporations, individuals, and charitable organizations. Analysis of the reports from individual states yields information about school choice. Of the 44 state legislatures that met in 1994, some sort of school choice legislation was introduced or pending in 25 states. Forty state governors have indicated their support for school choice, and at least 41 states have significant policy groups or grassroots coalitions working for school choice. Ten states have implemented charter school legislation, and many other states are deliberating about charter schools. Several thousand students attended the school of their choice under 1 of 16 privately sponsored voucher programs in 1994.

I’m Senator Buono, the Chair of the Senate Legislative Oversight Committee. We are here today to discuss the circumstances surrounding the application for Race to the Top funding. It was described in detail in the subpoena -- the resolution that supports the subpoena which is demanding the production of documents and the appearance of certain witnesses here today. I just wanted to begin -- before we welcome and swear in the first witness -- that the contractor for the State of New Jersey who was hired to help draft, edit, and prepare the Race to the Top application was in court this morning before Judge Feinberg, with the Attorney General’s office, attempting to raise certain privileges -- executive privilege, other privileges as well -- that would have resulted in Wireless not appearing and producing documents before the Committee.

Clearly the content would have been somewhat different but the underlying messages are on the same theme. Our enforced closure after afternoon groups on Friday, 13th March has, I know, been disruptive for everybody. It is, after all, an important part of our weekly routine to attend U3A at Shaftesbury Street or to meet as walkers or cyclists and I am sure we are all feeling a great sense of loss. This magazine will, I hope, have filled at least a small gap and the online activities of the groups that are able to do something is, I am sure, a boon to their participants. I still hear of new initiatives and any further ideas will be most welcome! Desert Island Times is being circulated beyond Newport U3A – I send each edition to members in Caldicot, Torfaen, Usk, Dartmouth and Odiham (Surrey) U3As and to others who are not currently members of any U3A.
