Protect Our Public Schools: Say NO to the Federal School Voucher Scheme

Take Action

Sign the petition telling Gov. Healey to say NO to the federal school voucher scheme.

The MTA is joining with the Protect Our Public Schools coalition in urging Gov. Maura Healey to reject President Donald Trump’s federal school voucher plan, which threatens to undermine public education in Massachusetts and across the United States. The proposal, which Massachusetts would need to opt into, comes directly from the Project 2025 playbook. It is designed to accelerate school privatization and destabilize the public education system, which is already facing a severe fiscal crisis.

Sign the Petition! Urge Gov. Healey to say NO to Trump's federal voucher scheme.
