Newt selling Duncan's plan in Philly road show
Gingrich, a Republican, wants more charter schools and stronger charter laws in all states. "When you go to those kind of schools, you realize what is possible for all American children," said Gingrich. "If we have absolute proof it can be done, why aren't we doing it? We are literally risking the lives of these kids."
Duncan acknowledged that some have called for tighter monitoring of charter schools. In Philadelphia, for instance, federal authorities are investigating at least six charters for alleged financial mismanagement. (Inquirer)
