Kentucky's Democratic Lieutenant Governor Jacqueline Coleman opposes a ballot measure allowing taxpayer funds for private and charter schools. She warns that it could harm public schools, especially in rural areas, by diverting resources. The measure would remove constitutional barriers, enabling the Republican-controlled Legislature to support private education. Proponents argue it offers educational freedom, while critics, including Coleman, stress the need to fund public schools serving the majority of students.
