State Supreme Court: Charter schools are unconstitutional
Re:
In the ruling, Chief Justice Barbara Madsen wrote that charter schools aren’t “common schools”
because they’re governed by appointed rather than elected boards.
OK so does that make public housing authorities unconstitutional
because these are run by appointed positions, not elected?
NOTE: the residents in public housing at the historic complex in my neighborhood, nationally registered as a WWII military landmark, tried to remedy problems with abuses and corruption in public housing by passing federal legislation on HUD reforms to create "democratically elected" tenant councils. however, the corrupt bureaucrats found ways to bypass this by interfering with the elections, inserting their own select tenants, and targeting and evicting tenants who used the laws and procedures to redress cases of corruption.
This issue has yet to be resolved; the corruption and abuses are still happening on the city level that is not checked by constitutional authorities, but takes advantage of the private municipality to collude with corporate interests to bypass and violate the equal rights, protections, defense and representation of individual citizens.
Therefore “money that is dedicated to common schools is unconstitutionally diverted to charter schools,” Madsen wrote.
