Their own words, by issue, with the date, the venue and the link. A paraphrase is marked as one.

Education

Sean P. Brennan

Real waste, fraud and abuse is able to occur where there isn’t sufficient accountability and oversight. Public schools operate under extensive financial, public-records, auditing and governmental oversight requirements. Charter schools that receive taxpayer dollars should not be able to operate in the shadows or face a lower standard of accountability.
