A parent who uses ESA vouchers can use taxpayer dollars to fund expensive activities like dance classes, club sports, & more. But low-income families whose children attend public school must pay for these extracurriculars out of pocket — meaning most won’t be able to participate.

Former AZ Senate President Steve Yarbrough already makes $125K/year pushing vouchers. Now, his company ACTSO is trying to force federal vouchers in AZ 🚩🚩🚩
💰Why? Because private organizations like ACSTO are able to take a 10% cut of every voucher. A federal expansion means MILLIONS more in profits 😡
