Iowa Poll: Majority Oppose Reynolds' Private School Accounts, but Approve of GOP-led Statehouse.

A new Des Moines Register/Mediacom Iowa Poll found that 62% of Iowans oppose Gov. Kim Reynolds’ signature “school choice” law, which allows families to use taxpayer money to pay for private schools. The program will allow every Iowa family to receive about $7,600 annually per student in an education savings account to pay private school costs such as tuition and fees. The law is also unpopular with a similar majority of parents with children in public schools. The law is expected to cost the state about $345 million annually once it’s fully in place.
