While speaking about Kentucky's budget for the upcoming years, Governor Andy Beshear (D) argued it lacked adequate funding for public education. Beshear bashed those who seek to defund public education in favor of private and charter schools, saying it's unfair to criticize public education as being inadequate when it's been underfunded for years.
Beshear's comments come amid a continued push by Republicans across the country to fund charter schools by cutting the costs related to public education. In some cases, conservatives have even flirted with the idea of subsidizing the cost of entirely private schools. Initiatives like the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025, even posit the subsidizing of Catholic and other religious schools as a possible way to cut the cost of public education.
