| Message | Just to make it clear, this act wouldn't abolish regulations for private schools. Instead it just means that private schools aren't subject to heavier regulation than public schools. In the interest of passing this bill, we'll remove article 3 and introduce that proposal separately in the future. - Karl Wendon, Democratic Party Presidential Candidate |
