- Education Reform via Charter School Expansionmethodology: charter-school-expansionBy expanding charter schools, we improve student outcomes because competition, accountability, and parental choice create incentives for higher educational performance and innovation.

Pataki as an exemplar of pragmatic leadership and bipartisan progress, we advance civic values and leadership development because aspirational role models inspire emulation and reinforce norms of integrity and cooperation.
