Friend,

Presently, 1.6 million American children are enrolled in Catholic schools. Yet, these vital institutions face an uncertain future because some states prevent parents from directing education tax dollars to their children's school.

That’s a big reason why nearly 100 Catholic schools close their doors each year.

Catholic education is at a crossroads — and it's imperative we rally together to ensure its survival.

This isn't just about losing a cherished American tradition. It's about depriving our most vulnerable communities of essential educational options. 

In many instances, these schools represent the ONLY lifeline for families in neighborhoods plagued by underperforming public schools. 

Friend, we believe passionately that these families deserve the freedom to choose, which is why we're staunch advocates for school choice. Do you agree?

Thank you,
