Senate weighs private school aid in education bill
The Senate debates extending federal aid to poorer students at private and parochial schools amid concerns it would breach constitutional limits and weaken public schools. Sen. Moynihan proposes a $750 yearly grant for families earning up to $15,000 to cover private school tuition, part of a broader $36.2 billion education package. An additional amendment would end interest-free college loans, switching to charged interest and new debt collection.
