Several states saw huge wins for school choice in their Republican primaries. Will this lead to more school choice legislation in 2025?
From The Federalist. The primary election results in a handful of states have made one thing clear — Republican elected officials who are anti-school choice are getting voted out of office while education-freedom champions are securing state house and senate seats.

Voters in Missouri selected six pro-school choice candidates in their August 6 primary election. …
In Tennessee, after Gov. Bill Lee saw the statewide education freedom bill fail to make it across the finish line in the 2024 legislative session, he went to work endorsing candidates who favored expanding school choice from “three to all 95 Tennessee counties.” His effort was successful as 12 out of 15 candidates he endorsed secured victory in the state’s primary election on August 1.
Earlier this year, the Texas primary election resulted in the ousting of six representatives who voted against school choice during the most recent legislative session. The Texas runoff election a few months later found three more representatives opposed to school choice voted out of office. Additionally, five other anti-school choice representatives, seeing the writing on the wall, lost seats by forgoing reelection. …
In May, the primary election in Idaho saw 15 incumbents lose their positions. According to the Lewiston Tribune, “Several lawmakers who had been staunchly against … school choice proposals were defeated in their primaries, including the House Education Committee Chair Julie Yamamoto, R-Caldwell.” …
In Kentucky’s primary election in May, the two Republican representatives who received “the most money from the teachers unions” experienced embarrassing defeat by 44 and 48 points each. School choice supporters were victorious.
Missouri, Tennessee, Texas, Idaho, and Kentucky testify that Republican voters want representatives and senators who will advance school choice. As these primary elections have undeniably revealed, it’s no longer a politically wise move for Republican state officials to oppose empowering parents with educational options for their children if they want to get reelected. …
Twelve states have enacted universal or near-universal school choice into law over the past three years, and more education freedom wins will occur in 2025 and beyond. …

Dear Lord, You are God Almighty and You see our nation is in disarray. You see the disunity and dishonor that has permeated every facet of our society. NOTHING escapes You. As we are praying for Your preservation and protection of the educational freedom of American families, I also ask that our religious liberties are included. This is not too much to ask as families are Your design and we who know Jesus Christ as Savior, call You Father. We are Your people…Your family who need You in this and countless other problems. Please hear our prayers, we ask in the Name of Jesus Christ for You to bring freedom to AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, CO, CT, DE, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MA, MI, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NH, NJ, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, OR, (PA) RI, SC, SD, TN, (TX), UT, VT, VA, WA, WV, WI, WY, and DC….for Your glory and the good of all Americans.
