No Money in the Backpack

Karen & Katie discuss what is not included in the Budget Bill - HB11 - The Back Pack Bill. SB11 - Expanding EdChoice made it. We have Governor Dewine saying he does not support HB11 as it is, but supports something like SB11. Representative Jon Cross has some words for Americans for Prosperity.

We go into where we see the Back Pack Bill going and that it will be rolled out at a later date and who is the most likely Vendor and why.
