Red-state governors across the country have passed universal school choice legislation, igniting what experts call a "revolution." 

"We're seeing a universal school choice revolution that has ignited all across the country. And it started with Arizona, but it really started because the teachers unions overplayed their hand and awakened a sleeping giant, which happens to be parents who want more of a say in their kid's education," American Federation For Children Senior Fellow Corey DeAngelis told Fox News Digital.

Relations between teachers unions and parents have soured in recent years, particularly in response to academic slowdowns across the U.S. in the wake of COVID-19-related school closures.
