Education Civil Rights Now (ECRN) is working with partners in multiple states to craft constitutional rights language that establishes an actionable right to high quality public education for all children. Former LA Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa is leading the campaign in California, Opportunity 180 is leading the campaign in Nevada, and 50CAN affiliates are leading the campaign in multiple other states. This theory of change threads a fine constitutional and political needle, codifying universal values into a legal framework with radical implications for parents and children. It is grounded in the fact that we are playing a rigged game because kids can't vote and parents don't have lobbyists. We are all going to Vegas trying to win against the House for kids. Codifying quality public education as a civil right would reorient the physics of education politics by empowering parents and families with a seat at the table to advocate for the interests of all children while shifting the narrative from choice and billionaires to civil rights and children.
