Someone should send Arne Duncan a get well card. A Friday afternoon passed without another sneaky political trick to kill the D.C. voucher program. Maybe he was sick and just couldn’t muster the energy.
Or maybe his conscience is getting to him and he could no longer betray his commitment to “do what works for kids” regardless of predisposition or ideology. Maybe he was sick before and is now getting better.
Whatever the case may be, let us wish for the physical and policy health of the Secretary so that he does what is right by D.C. vouchers with good body and spirit.
