Video: Ohio, Hawaii, and Government Growth

In this ThinkTech video, Grassroot President Keli’i Akina speaks with Robert Alt, President of the Buckeye Institute, a free market think tank located in Ohio. Joined by Grassroot Policy Director Malia Hill, Dr. Akina and Mr. Alt consider the challenges of pursuing much-needed reforms at the state level. Especially interesting is the discussion of education reform and school choice, a movement that struck a chord in Ohio despite a strong teacher’s union and political opposition. The success of school choice in Ohio is instructive for those who are looking for a way to work together with existing institutions to enact effective change.
