The American Spectator reports:

In a nail-biting 38-37 vote last week, Utah’s heavily Republican House of Representatives passed the nation’s first universally available school choice program. The Senate followed, by a vote of 19-10, and Governor Jon Huntsman signed the bill into law on Monday. Under the program, every family in Utah will receive a voucher worth between $3,000 per child (for the lowest income families) and $500 (for those with the highest incomes). Parents will be able to redeem these vouchers at whatever private school they deem best for their kids.

Well, it looks like some progress might be made toward privatizing education. The Utah law has some drawbacks but it is a step in the right direction. Perhaps it will lead other states to experiment with universal vouchers.
