Peter Murphy & the power shift in American education

This week on Givers, Doers, & Thinkers, Jeremy Beer sits down with Peter Murphy, senior advisor at the Invest in Education Foundation, to explore the growing movement for education freedom and school choice in America. Their conversation dives into the origins of Invest in Education, the lessons learned from the COVID-19 pandemic, and the new federal legislation—the Educational Choice for Children Act—that introduces a tax credit to encourage donations to scholarship-granting organizations. 

Jeremy and Peter discuss how this landmark policy could reshape the education landscape, from empowering parents and students with more options to challenging the traditional dominance of public schools and teachers’ unions. They also unpack the state-level opt-in process, the bipartisan potential of the initiative, and what this shift means for the future of American education.

Let’s go!
