$861 Million for Vouchers

TEA says vouchers carry big cost for taxpayers

The Tennessee Education Association says in an email that the total estimated cost of school vouchers in Tennessee if Gov. Lee’s universal voucher scheme passes is $861 million over the next five years.

The group notes that not only will vouchers increase state costs, but local taxpayers will also be on the hook for the voucher scheme.
