An Old Dominion-Style Rally

We told you yesterday about Democratic Delegate Algie T. Howell, who supports bringing strong school choice programs to Virginia.  And still, the news coming out of the Old Dominion State isn’t done:

More than 400 parents, students, and advocates rallied on Tuesday at the State Capitol in Richmond in support of creating school choice for students in low-income families.  Here are some photos from the event:
