Idaho GOP saw young voters surge 66% in voter registration in the last 4 years & responded by passing a new bill banning the use of student IDs to vote.

Also noting that given 30 years to show any, school choice provides no advantages. It doesn't work and decimates public schools.

The US is a place where we make children pay for school lunches and shame them when they can't, but where the CEO of Roku – who gets paid $18M per year – gets a government bailout after leaving almost half a billion dollars in a bank account that was only insured for $250k.

What a country.
