Elsa’s in Iowa need audited
ESAs, which are just the state subsidizing private Christian schools for the wealthy in Iowa, have been reported to have improper spending and poor tracking and blanket approvals Arizona.
From the article:
According to reporting by 12News Investigates, at least 20% of ESA parents last year improperly spent approximately $10 million in taxpayer funds — including purchases involving luxury items like iPhones, widescreen TVs and Kenmore appliances.
The report states that beginning in December 2024, State Schools Superintendent Tom Horne ordered staff to automatically approve all ESA purchase requests under $2,000.
As a result, 2.3 million transactions totaling $654 million were processed automatically.
Auditors found that many questionable purchases slipped through the system, including:
- airline tickets
- hotel stays
- meals
- amusement park admissions
- other travel-related expenses
Weird, all this has been uncovered in Arizona but not one litter box being used by students that identify as cats has ever been confirmed despite all the claims by conservatives.
