http://cognidissidence.blogspot.com/2015/01/lets-begin-by-understanding-who-they-are.htmlThat the law branch of the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation would come up with such findings surprises no one. WILL is an extremely well funded "non profit" and they have the Bradly Foundation to thank. It is always good to keep your donors happy, so advancing the agenda of the public school profiteers, is to be expected.
Let's take a look at who WILL is. This "study" was put together by three people, Rick Esenberg, CJ Szafir and Martin Lueken. A quick check of credentials and we see that neither Mr. Esenberg, Mr. Szafir nor Mr. Lueken have spent a day working in a public school, nor are they certified or eligible to teach in a public school. Martin Lueken was a recent hire to the team, courtesy of the private school pushing Walton family.
In New Wisconsin, working on a Republican campaign is all of the credentials you need to be an expert on any topic. Not a single education credential went into this report, and future reports to come from WILL, on voucher/private schools.

This control makes me sick to my stomach. Our funds must go to the public schools and let charter schools do their own funding.

They do a better job of flying under the radar than ALEC and the Kochs, but they're just as evil.

It's run by a guy named Charles Franklin, who's a professor or janitor or something at Marquette U.

I'll watch for his polls.
