Explanations of Vote:

  • Beltran -
    I realize the difficulties in administering school choice to allow flexibility while maintaining accountability. However, this bill places homeschool students at a disadvantage relative to traditional students. In some instances, this legislation will deprive homeschool students of equipment that is provided to traditional students. I am aware of no abuses of the system that justify regressing from last year’s legislation. (I asked several sources for any examples of abuse and was not provided with any compelling evidence, incidents, data, or even anecdotes justifying this legislation.) The homeschool program is already less generous in important aspects than traditional school. For example, students cannot easily obtain computers for homeschool. Thus, I must regretfully oppose this legislation as I do not believe this loss of flexibility is justified by any compelling need to curb any abuse. I hope we can strike a better balance in the future.
