Incentives for Equitable Education

The US Education Department (USED) will soon be writing checks totaling more than $100 billion (yes that's a b) to states and districts. About 95% is just backfilling budget holes -- a good thing given the precipitous and potentially disastrous drop in state and local revenues. Unfortunately, USED will be criticized because the money didn't come soon enough, wasn't enough, wasn't fairly distributed, and won't last forever.
