But the vast majority of this program would be for kids who don't use the public schools in the first place


Why should private school families have to pay for schools they aren't using on top of paying for their private schooling? Calling this "new spending" is very disingenuous IMO.

You're showing why they call them "entitlements".

No, it's math.

It's money the state is not currently spending, that the state will have to spend.

Does that hold for every government service, or just education?

Duh, because the state wasn’t funding this before. It is an entirely new program; thus entirely new spending.
