Fox News Sunday interviews for 2023 races: on Education

Tim Scott: Started the School Choice Caucus & they work

SCOTT: I hope we have about 30 minutes left to have this conversation... I started the School Choice Caucus. We led to the highest level of funding for HBCUs In the history of the country and then we made it permanent. I led on the vast majority of those pieces of legislation, I've worked on police reform where we want to make sure that the best wore the badge, that the officers have the best resources, the best training, and we never questioned their qualified immunity.

Q: On School choice [some say] what you do is end up hurting public schools when you let parents take the money elsewhere. How can public schools improve if you take even more money from them?

SCOTT: Look at Success Academy in NYC where you see the populations are about 87% minority and yet their schools are the top in the state of New York. What we've seen very consistently.
