The legislation would cover all students in *poor schools*, not just *poor people*. Although it is too often true that poor schools are in poor neighborhoods.
Getting kids out of poor schools, no matter what their economic class is, should be our first priority.

Seems like a Catch-22. The bad schools are bad primarily because of the students - and their parents - not caring. Putting them elsewhere will just drive down whatever other school they're in.
