This is one area where Obama administration is mildly more pragmatic than the congressional Democrats who want to gut the program.

The rationale the EDU Sec. gave is that he didn't want to take away these kids' educational option, with which they're happy. Well, isn't the opposite of that to give more education options to more kids...through vouchers? But they're opposed to more school choices because they're beholden to powerful teacher/administrators' unions. They're denying a better education to kids to please a powerful special interest. That's Democrat politics as usual.
