Part of Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal's education legislation which passed the legislative body in warp speed early this spring has become derailed as a state Judge found that the paying mechanism for the controversial voucher program was constitutional.
The legislation had been touted by Jindal and others as a way to transform not just Louisiana education but American education. As a result, and because Jindal has been pegged to be one of the future republican leaders, the setback at the hands of the Court has sent ripples throughout the local and national media. Here is a sample as to what has been recently written about the legislation and the Court ruling.
