Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Research suggests that members of racial and ethnic minorities, especially African Americans and Latinos, are especially supportive of education reforms such as school vouchers. Using the Pew Hispanic Center/ Henry K. Kaiser Family Foundation 2003 National Survey of Latinos on Education, we examine both the minority support and minority opposition hypotheses, and generally find Latinos to be more supportive of many aspects of No Child Left Behind. Of the variety of explanations for such support, we find that religion, notably Catholicism, is the best explanation for Latino support. Interestingly, we also show that while Republicans are unsurprisingly more inclined to support the provisions of NCLB, Democrats are not similarly opposed to them. Finally, we find that general knowledge of recent developments in education policy is not very high, but is an important indicator of opinion. This suggests to us that future opinion on this legislation and education reform in general is still up for grabs, and that parties and interest groups have a relatively open forum to shape this debate as they wish.
