Today, about 36 000 students are served by vouchers. The programs are in the city of Washington D.C., and three of the fifty states: Florida, Ohio and Wisconsin. The number of students will grow with 14 000 new vouchers just approved by lawmakers in Ohio. And Utah will offer a voucher program for disabled students. (1)_______________________.One objection to vouchers has to do with the fact that most private schools are religious. The Constitution separates government and religion. Voucher critics argue that the use of public money for religious school is unconstitutional. (2)_______________________.Yet some people think all families should be offered vouchers, not just poor ones. Milton Friedman and his wife started the Milton and Rose D. Friedman Foundation to work for school choice with the goal to improve, through competition, the quality of education for all.Milton Friedman had his ninety-third birthday on Sunday. (3)_______________________. Mr Friedman told Education Week that he thinks fifty years from now, all students will be served by school vouchers.
