Ron Johnson touts universal school choice as the remedy for rising crime – By Bill Glauber (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) / Sept 24, 2022
In commercials and on the stump, Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson has sought to make combating crime a major issue in his reelection campaign against Democratic Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes.
On Friday, Johnson brought the campaign to God Touch Milwaukee, a nonprofit group on the city’s south side, where he convened a roundtable discussion on the issue.
“My macro solution, renewed faith, stronger families, more supportive communities,” Johnson said during the discussion.
Later, he added: “The blunt public policy prescription for me is school choice.”
Johnson backs universal school choice that would allow parents to receive taxpayer-paid vouchers to attend church-based and other private schools without any income limits.
