The LEARNS Act is Gov. Sanders’ signature legislative priority. It’s a 144 page bill that outlines dramatic changes to our public education system and covers scores of policies like universal voucher expansion, teacher pay, literacy standards, tutoring, community service, work-study programming, worker dismissals, merit-based pay, and more. There is support to pass the bill in the Arkansas legislature though it remains unpopular among public educators.
