New York Governor Kathy Hochul has announced her support for a federal school choice program, aligning with President Donald Trump’s education policy agenda. The move marks a significant victory for Orthodox Jewish advocacy groups, who have long pushed for expanded private and religious school funding. Critics argue the plan could divert public funds away from struggling traditional schools, while supporters praise it as a way to increase educational options. The decision comes amid ongoing debates over the role of government in funding faith-based education.
