Quote of the Day 10/5/2015

“Our kids are locked into their neighborhoods. They can’t get out of there to go to a charter school, they can’t get out of there to go to a job, they can’t get out. I can’t imagine any family saying to their two or three high school children, ‘yes I can find a way to get each of you $10 a month to ride the bus.'”

-Oklahoma City school board member Phil Horning, speaking against a plan by the Central Oklahoma Transportation and Parking Authority to charge middle school and high school students $10 a month for a bus pass (Source)
