The Gates Foundation and "Education Advocacy Groups"
Linda Shaw's final article in the Seattle Times was printed this morning. She writes about the various "education advocacy groups" that are heavily funded by Gates including League of Education Voters, the Partnership for Learning and Stand for Children. From her article:
Here at home, as well as nationally, the Seattle-based foundation is a powerful player in public education. It underwrites groups pushing for change, bankrolls projects and helps out-of-state organizations establish themselves here.
