Explores how US state laws and policies have stacked the deck against charter schools by limiting the number of charter schools allowed in a state, forbidding for-profit firms from holding charters, and forcing them to pay rent out of operating funds. They explain how these policies can be amended to level the playing field and give charter schools a fairer chance to succeed.
