Vouchers not mentioned, but governor leaves no doubt about his plans


Missouri Governor Matt Blunt did not mention vouchers in his State of the State message Wednesday night, but his intentions came through loud and clear:

"For me, no option is off the table, and I am willing to work with anybody who cares about our children," he said, drawing applause from Republicans and the handful of Democrats who support the tax credits.


Tuition tax credits are widely perceived as the way to open the door for vouchers and the pouring of public money into private schools.
