Iowa House Minority Leader Jennifer Konfrst, D-Windsor Heights, tweeted about the Education Savings Account bill still under consideration in the Iowa House of Representatives on Sunday.

"All Iowa kids deserve a chance at a great education. That means supporting public schools, not siphoning money away from all kids for the benefit of a few. Vouchers are bad for Iowa kids," she said.
