Hoover Institution senior fellows and members of Hoovers Task Force on K12 Education Terry Moe and Paul Peterson comment on the controversy surrounding the Washington, D.C., voucher program. Moe and Peterson discuss why vouchers are important for students, particularly disadvantaged ones; why many teachers and Democrats do not like the voucher program; why Democrats voted to end the voucher program; and why private schools work best for disadvantaged students.
